Currently, the Russia-Ukraine is at a stalemate and neither side is willing to negotiate.
Allowing the war to drag on would increase the risk of nuclear confrontation and direct
Russia-NATO conflict. Not beneficial to the US and/or NATO allies.
My take:
To persuade Ukraine to the negotiation table and accepting territorial loss, Ukraine is
encouraged/allowed to counterattack with MAXIMAL NATO support until it loses its
forward momentum.

"MOSCOW, September 14. /TASS/. Moscow will consider all serious proposals to settle the conflict in Ukraine
if they meet Russia’s legitimate interests, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said at talks with Myanmar’s
Foreign Minister Than Swe.
"We are ready to consider any serious proposals that will take into account the realities on the ground and the
basic legitimate interests of the Russian Federation," the Russian minister said in opening remarks.
He said some countries in the Global South had already sent Russia initiatives to resolve the conflict in Ukraine
"apparently driven by sincere motives."
Lavrov also noted that Moscow highly appreciates the "weighted, balanced, objective position of Myanmar
friends in connection with what is happening in Ukraine.""
As is, Moscow has a strong position. Don't think it could really give up the four oblasts which had been
incorporated into Russia, let alone Crimea.
