Chinese officials have called for "normal stability with controllable disagreements" in US-China relations during a recent Track 1.5 dialogue. Liu Haixing, head of the Communist Party's International Department, urged both nations to expand shared interests and reject zero-sum games. The dialogue, which includes 40 Chinese and foreign representatives, highlighted cooperation in areas such as trade, healthcare, artificial intelligence, and food security.
