English term or phrase: to resist framing issues as “a zero-sum game”

“Where it can, we're going to keep on working with them [Russians]; where we have differences, we're going to say so clearly,” the president said.
He urged Russian leaders to resist framing issues as “a zero-sum game,” where what is good for one country is bad for the other, and consider where they want to take Russia in the future.
“I think if they are looking forward into the 21st century and how they can advance their economy and make sure that some of our joint concerns around counterterrorism are managed effectively, then I think we can work together,” he said.

Explanation:
Он (по всей видимости, президент США) обратился к российскому руководству с настоятельным призывом воздерживаться от формулирования вопросов двусторонних отношений по принципу «выиграть должен кто-то один», когда то, что хорошо для одной страны, плохо для другой, и исходить из того, куда оно (т.е. российское руководство) хочет повести Россию в будущем.

Имхо, как и обычно.
