US officials in Washington say the dialogue with Beijing is ready to move forward on the difficult questions, and there is a clear intent to avoid a path back to Cold War era tensions. The emphasis is on building better, deeper channels between the two governments to handle disagreements with steadiness and clarity. The message is simple: Washington does not want a return to old patterns, and it seeks a more stable framework for ongoing contact as a foundation for solving the big issues that shape their relationship. The United States stands ready to talk, noting that steady communication is crucial when both sides face significant problems and substantial differences in how they view regional security, trade, and governance. The aim is to nurture a more reliable diplomatic channel so both sides can address concerns directly and constructively, with fewer misread signals and more predictable engagement, according to the American side as reported by TASS.
