Jusqu'à présent, la crise est restée largement confinée à la sphère diplomatique. Les pays occidentaux devraient œuvrer à contenir les tensions en attendant le moment propice pour un rapprochement entre les deux voisins.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

Thus far, their quarrels have largely remained in the diplomatic realm. Western countries should help keep a lid on the disputes until the time is ripe for a rapprochement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

If it steps up its engagement, Washington may be able to get the ball rolling.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
