reconciliation talks
Mending relationship conversations
Reconciliation talks are formal negotiations aimed at restoring a damaged relationship between opposing parties—whether nations, political factions, or estranged groups.
The term implies both sides seek to resolve differences and move past conflict: Reconciliation talks between the two countries stalled over border disputes.
The phrase suggests a process more focused on healing divisions than simply ending hostilities.
