Cyprus, de facto, also is English-spoken.

English also is a recognized regional language in two of the three Caribbean parts of the Netherlands (Saba and Sint Eustatius), which means it can be used in communication with the government (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_territorial_entities_w...)

(As another indication of the weird status of these regions, they also have the US dollar as the official currency.)
