This People's Daily commentary, published ahead of President Xi Jinping's state visit to the US on September 23-25, 2026, at President Trump's invitation, elaborates on the newly established bilateral framework of 'constructive strategic stability.' The article argues that the May 2026 Beijing summit between Xi and Trump set a new direction for US-China relations, defined by 'four stabilities': cooperation as the primary focus, competition with boundaries, manageable differences, and lasting peace. It asserts that this framework rejects zero-sum thinking and the 'Thucydides Trap,' aiming for dynamic balance through cooperation and risk management. The piece highlights progress in military, trade, and people-to-people exchanges, while warning that US restrictive measures contradict the new consensus. It emphasizes that correct strategic perception, mutual respect, peaceful coexistence, and win-win cooperation are essential for the relationship's success, and that a stable US-China relationship is a global public good. The article concludes by urging both sides to implement the leaders' consensus and steer the relationship toward sustained stability.
