Should countries stay allies even if their leaders don’t get along? No, I believe that countries shouldn’t stay allies even if their leaders don’t get along. I feel this way because what if they find a way to do something bad to each other? Both leaders might get into conflict, and both countries will have a fight. Both countries might be hurt really badly and might need aid from other countries.

Also, the leaders might secretly tell their citizens to do bad things, like steal or even kill them. If the two leaders fight, then their citizens might also start fighting, and there might be a big clash. If the leaders don’t like each other, then the citizens might not like each other either. There also might be a big conflict because what if the countries start a war? Their other allies might join in, and there will be an even bigger clash? If their allies and their leaders don’t get along, they might break apart, and it might be hard for the country to recover from their separation.

This is why I believe countries shouldn’t ally with each other if their leaders don’t get along.
