Despite Politico reporting that officials are now wondering whether “Milley had a point” about last November being a good time to resume peace talks, politicians might fear the public’s wrath if they do so now after all that was spent on the counteroffensive for nothing. Moreover, Ukraine and the West’s newfound military-political weaknesses that were brought about by this debacle might have made Moscow disinterested in peace talks for the time being if it already decided on another offensive.
"this debacle might have made Moscow *disinterested* in peace talks..."
"Disinterested" is an all too common solecism--the word signifies lack of a material interest in, or indifference to, the outcome of some process. The correct expression in your context is "uninterested" or "not interested."
