Solution

The correct option is B countries'
The possessive case of a plural noun ending with the letter "s" is formed by adding an apostrophe at the end of the noun. In this case, the noun in bracket is countries - a plural noun. Its possessive form is: countries'. Hence the correct answers is option B.
Options A and C are incorrect as they do not follow the possessive sign pattern mentioned above.
