What does it mean to say that the US is not looking for a conflict with Russia?

The White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby says that from the very beginning of the Russia and Ukraine conflict the US feared escalation, that the US president does not want to be responsible for the start of World War III, and that they are not looking for a conflict with Russia, a nuclear power.

Shortly after, the US president authorizes military strikes on Russian territory.

Launching military strikes now means being against military conflict. Keep this in mind.
