Pandas retrieve a value based on index

Been trying to search for this but somehow can't seem to find the right answer.

Given the following simple dataframe:

   country   continent    population
0    UK       Europe        111111
1   Spain     Europe        222222
2   Malaysia   Asia         333333
3    USA      America       444444

How can I retrieve the country value if I have a condition WHERE an index value is given? For example, If I am given an index value of 2, I should return Malaysia.

Edit: Forget to mention that the input index value comes from a variable (think of it as a user select a particular row and the selected row provide an index value variable).

Thank you.

df.iloc[2]['country']

iloc is used for selection by position, see pandas.DataFrame.iloc documentation for further options.
