What country's still use R12?

As of October 2023, R12 (dichlorodifluoromethane), a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), is largely phased out due to its harmful effects on the ozone layer. However, some countries, particularly in the developing world, may still use R12 in certain applications, especially where retrofitting to alternatives is not feasible. This includes some regions in Africa and parts of Asia, where enforcement of international agreements like the Montreal Protocol may be less stringent. Nonetheless, global efforts continue to eliminate the use of R12 and encourage the transition to more environmentally friendly refrigerants.
