Mattis said that the talks were a unique opportunity for the United States and China to engage in philosophy-level discussions about the way ahead on shared security interests. The United States seeks a constructive and results-oriented relationship with China in which differences are managed when they arise. "Our two nations can and do cooperate in mutually beneficial ways," said Mattis.

The China-U.S. Diplomatic and Security Dialogue is one of the four high-level mechanisms established during the Mar-a-Lago meeting. The other bilateral dialogues—tackling issues regarding the economy, law enforcement and cybersecurity, as well as social and people-to-people exchanges—will also be held within the year. Notably, the China-U.S. Diplomatic and Security Dialogue platform is quite similar to the diplomatic and security coordination mechanism the U.S. has with its allies. Though China and the United States are not military allies, their relationship is more important than any other in the world. Therefore, the dialogue on diplomacy and security goes far beyond those of the U.S. and its allies.
The latest dialogue helped pave the way for the upcoming Xi-Trump meeting during the G20 Summit in Hamburg in Germany.
Their Mar-a-Lago meeting ended a possible decline in China-U.S. relations and reached principled consensus to build a bilateral partnership on the basis of no conflict, no confrontation, mutual respect and win-win cooperation. The two governments also reset their high-level dialogue mechanism, launched the 100-day plan framework for trade talks and agreed to strengthen coordination on regional security issues such as the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue. These achievements elevated global expectations of better relations between China and the U.S.
