Simplified Meaning:
Countries often make decisions based on what's best for them. For example, if a country needs oil, it will try to be friends with countries that have a lot of oil, even if they don't share the same values. If another country threatens its access to oil, that country could be seen as an enemy. This idea is like picking friends in school; you might hang out with someone because they are good at a sport you like or help you with homework, even if they’re not your best friend. To apply this to your life, think about your own priorities and how they shape your relationships. Just like countries, sometimes you choose your friends based on what you need or want at that time.
