  1. aNATO (the North Atlantic Treaty)NATO (Atlantpagten)
  2. bThe EU (the European Union)EU (Den Europæiske Union)
  3. cThe Council of Europe in StrasbourgEuroparådet i StrasbourgCorrect answer

Why?

The Council of Europe (Europarådet) is not the same as the EU: it is a separate organisation with more member countries than the EU, and it works for human rights and democracy. Denmark was a member from the start in 1949, and the Convention became part of Danish law in 1992.

Translated with AI. In the exam the question is in Danish, as shown above.
