Don't fully understand what you are trying to achieve. Did you mean this?

private static long  countModel(Model model)
{
    return model.count();
}

renderArgs.put("countryCount", countModel(country));

EDIT: If count is a static method, it has nothing to do with model. The static method is not inherited. So all you have to do is to call it directly,

renderArgs.put("countryCount", Country.count());
