Cabo Verde borders no country
No land borders at all. The map above shows what is nearest instead — every crossing from here is by sea or by air.
Nothing to link to here — which is the point. Cabo Verde is one of the countries a border graph cannot help you with: the map above is the whole hint.
Nowhere to cross
No land borders at all.
Cabo Verde touches no other country, so there is no neighbour to reason from — on the World Map Quiz you find it by its own coastline or not at all. That is not as lonely as it sounds: 40 of the 195 countries on the world board are in the same position.
