Name the Country Papa Benedetto Is Refering To

"That task requires a readiness to grapple firmly with the challenges presented by the increasing tide of secularism in your country. Support for euthanasia strikes at the very heart of the Christian understanding of the dignity of human life. Recent developments in medical ethics and some of the practices advocated in the field of embryology give cause for great concern. If the Church’s teaching is compromised, even slightly, in one such area, then it becomes hard to defend the fullness of Catholic doctrine in an integral manner. Pastors of the Church, therefore, must continually call the faithful to complete fidelity to the Church’s Magisterium, while at the same time upholding and defending the Church’s right to live freely in society according to her beliefs."
If you said the he was refering to Scotland you would be correct since this is taken from his address for the Scottish Bishops ad Limina visit that he gave on Friday. However in light of what has been occurring here in the USA the US Bishops would do well to heed what he said as well.
