PhoneNumberUtils.isGlobalPhoneNumber not returning proper results

I have an EditText defined in layout xml like this:

<EditText
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:inputType="phone"
        android:ems="10"
        android:id="@+id/enter_phone_field"
        android:layout_below="@id/enter_name_field"
        android:layout_alignRight="@id/destination_value_label"
        android:layout_alignEnd="@id/destination_value_label" />

I have implemented its OnFocusChangeListener like this:

enterPhoneNumber = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.enter_phone_field);


        // phone number lost focus listener
        enterPhoneNumber.setOnFocusChangeListener(new View.OnFocusChangeListener() {
            @Override
            public void onFocusChange(View v, boolean hasFocus) {
                if (!hasFocus){
                    if (PhoneNumberUtils.isGlobalPhoneNumber(enterPhoneNumber.getText().toString())){
                        //valid phone number detected
                        Log.i("PhoneNumberValidated", enterPhoneNumber.getText().toString());
                    }
                    else {
                        enterPhoneNumber.setError("Please enter valid phone number");
                    }
                }
            }
        });

I tried entering 34 in enterPhoneNumber field, and when I tapped out of it for some reasons it did not show error on it.

Any ideas?

Because "34" is global number by definition of the PhoneNumberUtils.isGlobalPhoneNumber which in its turn checks that "34" matches the pattern:

private static final Pattern GLOBAL_PHONE_NUMBER_PATTERN =
            Pattern.compile("[\\+]?[0-9.-]+");
