Both the Democratic and Republican parties voiced their opinion that China and India should be responsible for the disruption of the negotiations; and it is right that American representives didn't give in (not sure what you are trying to say in this last clause). This year,the two parties have been at odds about signing bilateral agreements between the US and Columnbus, and the US and South Korea respectively.

I think I cleared up a few things, but I'm sure someone else can offer some better input.

Hi colloquium,

You’re very helpful. Thank you.

and it is right that American representives didn't give in (not sure what you are trying to say in this last clause).

I mean American negotiators didn’t make any concessions during the talks and the two parties thought it was right for that.

I mean the two parties often disagree with each other’s policies but this time they show their unity.

Both Democratic and Republican parties said in a voice that China and India should be responsible for disruption of the negotiation;

I remember the idiom wrong. I mean “ with a voice” rather than “in a voice”

This year,the two parties have been at odds about signing bilateral agreements between the US and Columnbus, and the US and South Korea.

I think the sentence is very clumsy but I don’t how to write. Could you or someone else recast it? Two "the US" repeat.
