BEIRUT — The dominant US-backed Syrian Kurdish party in control of northeastern Syria is prepared to hold talks with the Syrian government over the future of the area, senior Kurdish officials said Wednesday.

A Damascus-based political group called the ‘‘Syrian Democratic Front,’’ which is seen as close to the government, visited the Kurdish-led administration to ‘‘start a dialogue’’ with the government, said Ilham Ahmed, who cochairs the US-backed Syrian Democratic Council in northeast Syria.

The proposition comes days after Turkey and the United States agreed on a road map to resolve a dispute over the northern Syrian town of Manbij, which is controlled by the US-backed Kurdish fighters, Washington’s main ally in Syria.

‘‘The aim would . . . be to develop a Syrian-Syrian solution and close the door on conflicts and wars,’’ said Aldar Khalil, a senior Kurdish official.
