Withdrawal of flag with respect to a country (7)
I believe the answer is:
eritrea
'country' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'withdrawal of flag with respect to a' is the wordplay.
'withdrawal of' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'flag' becomes 'tire' (I've seen this in other clues).
'with respect to' becomes 're' (I've seen this in other clues).
'tire' backwards is 'erit'.
'erit'+'re'+'a'='ERITREA'
(Other definitions for eritrea that I've seen before include "State of northeast Africa" , "North-east African state" , "Country of northeast Africa" , "It declared its independence from Ethiopia in 1993" , "River forming part of German-Polish border" .)
