Recently, which country has passed a law banning the sale, import and production of alcohol in the country
A
Germany
B
Iran
C
Cuba
D
Iraq
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Iraq’s parliament has passed a law forbidding the import, production or selling of alcoholic beverages in a surprise move that angered many in the country’s Christian community who rely on the business.

Detailed explanation-2: -Some countries, like Saudi Arabia, outlaw alcohol altogether. Drinking there can be punished by flogging, fines, imprisonment and, for foreigners, deportation.

Detailed explanation-3: -There’s no alcohol available in Kuwait, that means even hotels and restaurants don’t serve alcohol. The act of drinking alcohol privately is not illegal in itself, but buying and/or selling, bringing alcohol to a public place or being intoxicated in public areas, including a car as a passenger, are all serious crimes.

Detailed explanation-4: -Consuming alcoholic beverages is strictly prohibited in Saudi Arabia. Therefore, the short answer to your question is no. Due to the fact that Islamic law forbids the manufacture, distribution, and use of alcoholic beverages, drinking alcoholic beverages is against the law in this country.
