“We believe the prerequisite for meaningful diplomacy and real peace is a stronger Ukraine, capable of deterring and defending against any future aggression,” Blinken said in a speech in Finland, which recently became NATO’s newest member and shares a long border with Russia.

How the Ukrainians act at the negotiating table and how they negotiate ought to be left up to them. However it is out of line for the United States to say this, first as a nation who isn't officially party to the conflict setting any terms or tones to the negotiation is out of line we should be hearing this from Ukrainian Officials instead. This is ment from Washington to be a very clear signal to Ukraine on what to do.

"There are two kinds of countries. Those the US sanctions, and those the US arms."

Anyone who's ever lived abroad is capable of comprehending what so many US citizens seem incapable of doing, and that's understand why the US isn't liked very much by a 'lot' of other countries; including the big players in Europe. Even former military advisors have said as much on the MSM, only coincidentally, to never get invited back on again, after mentioning it.
