Will the Asia-Pacific region's security be contingent on ongoing American dominion or will a Chinese-led security architecture emerge? This very question tests Washington’s willingness and ability to accept Beijing's proposal for a “new type of major power relations. ” To overcome mutual suspicion, both parties should follow some guiding principles: abide by international law, establish common standards of action in the Asia-Pacific, and improve communication lines and increase transparency; preserve as much as possible the status quo. The use or threat of force undermines the existing security order; maximize efforts to manage and resolve differences through peaceful means; notify one another ahead of any major security move to bolster mutual confidence and collaborative security. China and the United States should seize opportunities to work together and to benefit mutually from a stable security environment.

In an opinion piece published on bloomberg.com, Cui pointed out that China and the US share important interests, and they "have significant potential for cooperation." "We may have major differences, but we also share important interests, including maintaining regional peace and stability, supporting freedom of navigation and overflight in accordance with international law, and resolving disputes through peaceful negotiations and diplomatic dialogue," Cui wrote. "The region should not become a competing ground for China and the US," he added. Cui mentioned that some of the perceptions in the United States and elsewhere about China's policy and intentions in the area "are misplaced." "A pressing task is to understand the facts and China's intentions correctly so as to avoid real danger and consequences as a result of misinterpretation and miscalculation," Cui emphasized.
