Final answer:

Belgium shares a border with France contrary to the implication of the question, and it's one of France's neighboring countries alongside Spain, Italy, and Germany.

Step-by-step explanation:

Belgium does not border France. Spain, Italy, and Germany all share a border with France. However, Belgium is located north of France and shares a border with it. The other options listed all border France, so they are not the correct answer.

France shares its borders with several European countries, but Belgium is indeed one of them. Contrary to the implication of the question, France shares its northern border with Belgium. The other neighboring countries of France include Spain to the southwest, Italy to the southeast, and Germany to the northeast. Therefore, all options listed except Belgium do share a border with France, making the direct answer apparently incorrect as stated. However, if we cross-reference the provided list of European Union countries that includes Belgium, it only further confirms that Belgium does indeed share a border with France.
