Perhaps “was founded in” rather than “belongs to” would make the question clearer. Also, as it is not a government agency it does not “belong” to any country.

As usual, sloppy wording! "Belongs to" suggests Gov't ownership/direction--incorrect!

No, the British Government has no holdings in Reuters

It may have started out in England, but the company's headquarters have been in Toronto since 2008.
