there are no eternal friend between countries, but perpetual benefits
国与国之间没有永恒的朋友，只有永恒的利益
这话用英文这么说对吗？
there is no xxxx
friend 改成friendship
后面半句直译太奇怪了，可惜我想不出应该怎么翻

there is no xxxx
friend 改成friendship[/quote]个人觉得There does not exist更好一些
There are no eternal friends between nations
Only eternal interests
渣翻见谅
Nations have no permanent friends or allies, they only have permanent interests.
We have no eternal allies, and we have no perpetual enemies. Our interests are eternal and perpetual, and those interests it is our duty to follow.
speech, House of Commons, 1 March 1848
