You have several solutions.
 GROUP BY ID, COMPANY, COUNTRY
  HAVING COUNT(STATUS) > 1
is one.
  WHERE EXISTS (SELECT NULL

                ....
                WHERE A.ID = B.ID
                  AND A.COMPANY = B.COMPANY
                  AND A.COUNTRY = B.COUNTRY
                  AND A.STATUS > B.STATUS)
is another.
  I am sure you can also do something with MINUS or INTERSECT ...
