Seven countries signed a treaty binding each of them to perform specified actions on a certain fixed date, with the actions of each conditional on simultaneous action taken by the other countries. Each country was also to notify the six other countries when it had completed its action.
The simultaneous-action provision of the treaty leaves open the possibility that
(A) the compliance date was subject to postponement, according to the terms of the treaty
(B) one of the countries might not be required to make any changes or take any steps in order to comply with the treaty, whereas all the other countries are so required
(C) each country might have a well-founded excuse, based on the provision, for its own lack of compliance
(D) the treaty specified that the signal for one of the countries to initiate action was notification by the other countries that they had completed action
(E) there was ambiguity with respect to the date after which all actions

Each of the 7 countries are to perform specified actions on a certain fixed date, with the actions of each conditional on simultaneous action taken by the other countries.

The bolded part of the sentence is the key to answering this question. What possibility does it leave open? Each country can ignore to comply stating that the other countries are not complying. That's what C is saying.

Vemuri,

I can also leave the possibility that 5 countries are stuck notifying the other countries whereas the last one country doesn't have any condition..

I fell for B..
