You won't be able to change your rescue email address (nor add one if you don't currently have one) until you can answer your questions - you will need to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.

You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; this can be done by clicking here and picking a method, or if your country isn't listed, filling out and submitting this form.
They wouldn't be security questions if they could be bypassed without Apple verifying your identity.
