Austria, german but I'm sure that you can get by with English
Belgium: In the flemish area (Flanders), speak english, german, or dutch (from where the flemish originated) and everyone will understand you.
In the french area (wallonie), speak FRENCH and nothing else!!!
In Brussels, speak french or flemish, it's (supposed to be) bilingual.
In the borderline with Germany and Luxemburg, speak german (although it's only 1% of the population and they usually speak frenck also)
In Jordania, DO NOT SPEAK HEBREW!!! Classic Arabic will do just fine...
Panama used to belong to Colombia before the USA got involved and helped "liberating" the country (for which they naturally received large land concessions and traffic control on the canal) so SPANISH is fine...
By "Soviet Union" i suppose that you reffer to the FORMER Soviet Union. RUSSIAN will do the trick wherever you go (it's taught at school).
Bottom line, If you speak English, Spanish, French, Dutch, German Arabic and Russian, you're sorted...
;)

Austria - basically German
Belgium - French and Flemish
Jordan - Arabic
Panama - Hispanic Spanish
The Soviet Union no longer exists. The major part of the Soviet Union was Russia where... yep, you guessed it... they spoke Russian. But there were many other languages as well.

I probably will not get best answer, but just wanted to say some people in Austria speak Italian, nearer to the Italian border! You don't know these things if you haven't traveled. As for Panama, not only is Spanish official, other English, but Chinese is pouring in as well.

In Austria they may speak German because they're close to Germany but I think they may speak Austrian. I think Belgium speaks Belgian and I'm pretty sure the Soviet Union speaks Russian.
