only 3 country care about privacy?

Yes, unfortunately. In these countries, the IP address is considered private information. For Android, the app is available in F-Droid.

Klar is only available in those stores, but not worldwide.

Then disable telemetry, it's exactly the same thing.

Klar is available worldwide on F-Droid.

I don't use Android. I don't understand why did Mozilla add Klar to the stores of those countries only.

As others have said, the option to disable telemetry is in the other stores.

Read the article, it says it too:

You can turn off the anonymous data collecting of Firefox Focus by tapping on the settings icon, and flipping the switch next to "send anonymous usage data" to off.
