Countries DO NOT have friends.
Countries have interests.
You're both guilty of anthropomorphizing. Countries do not have friends OR interests because they are NOT living beings. Countries have people in positions of power that direct those countries' states of affairs who have both friends (and enemies) and interests in other countries or in their own country that then affect the way they deal with the other countries.
