Solution

For statements (I) and (II), since only two countries are mentioned, "between" is the correct preposition. Thus, sentence (II) is correct.

In statement (III), since there are a lot of magazines, "among" is the correct preposition to be used.

In statement (IV), the correct form of the second half is "only a few were of my interest".

Thus, only statement (II) is correct.

Hence, the answer is option D.
