Mitigates (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eases

'mitigates' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for eases that I've seen before include "Makes less severe" , "Lessens tensions" , "Moderates" , "Moves carefully" , "Softens" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
