diplomatic resolution
Talks-based conflict ending
Diplomatic resolution is the settlement of a dispute through negotiation, dialogue, or formal agreement rather than through force or legal action.
The phrase appears most often in international relations, where countries seek diplomatic resolution to conflicts: Both sides expressed hope for a diplomatic resolution to the border dispute.
It implies compromise and mutual agreement rather than one party imposing terms on another.
