Target JSON object with variable property

Question

I have a JSON object with a list of countries :

"countries": {
        "AQ": {"name": "Antarctica", n: 0, current: 1},
        "AF": {"name": "Afghanistan", n: 2, current: 1},
        "AL": {"name": "Albania", n: 3, current: 1},
}

load >>

countriesDB = json.datas.countries

I need to get the n and the current of an item. countriesDB.AQ.n works, of course. But the caller is from another db ; events[0].e[0] gives me "AQ". So what I'd like to do is something like that : countriesDB.(events[0].e[0]).n.

This is certainly pretty simple but I cannot figure out how to.

How about

countriesDB[events[0].e[0]].n

?
