A People's Daily 'Zhong Sheng' commentary on August 31 said "There’s no doubt that communication is the only thing that stops lies, and dialogues the only way to avoid misjudges. Slandering others doesn't proves one's innocence, and blame games won’t help solve problems. As long as China and the U.S. can put the problems on the table, and properly handle disputes through dialogues, there’s an opportunity to bring their relations back to the right track. The future development of China-U.S. relations depends on the understanding and grasp of historical experiences, as well as today’s choice and action. To avoid strategic misjudges, the two sides must respect both history and the present, and conform to the common expectation of the two peoples and those from the rest of the world." It concluded with the assertion that "China is always open for dialogues. The U.S. should go with the general trend of history with consideration for the peaceful development of the world, meet China half way, and jointly charter the course for China-U.S. relations."
