The correct answer is Option 1: 1 and 2 only.

Moldova is a landlocked country located in Eastern Europe. It shares its borders with two countries: Ukraine and Romania.

1. Ukraine: Moldova shares a long border with Ukraine to the east. The border stretches for approximately 1,202 kilometers (746 miles). This is the longest border that Moldova shares with any country. The shared border is crucial for trade, transportation, and cultural exchanges between the two countries.

2. Romania: Moldova shares its western border with Romania. The border between Moldova and Romania is approximately 450 kilometers (280 miles) long. The two countries have historical, cultural, and linguistic ties, with a significant number of Moldovans having Romanian ancestry. The border plays an important role in facilitating cross-border trade and travel.

3. Belarus: Option 3 states that Moldova shares its border with Belarus, but this is incorrect. Moldova does not share a border with Belarus. Belarus is located to the north of Ukraine, and there are no direct land borders between Moldova and Belarus.

Therefore, the correct answer is Option 1: 1 and 2 only. Moldova shares borders with Ukraine and Romania, but not with Belarus.
