I think the problem with western propaganda continues to be that it paints Ukraine as weak as some other country like Iraq, when it was never this weak.
Ukraine was a strong country to begin with and it's a severe underestimation of Russian intentions and capabilities to think Russia's weak because Ukraine was also weak.
Rather both are fairly capable and strong, Ukraine has - for instance - 2,000+ MBTs and 16,000+ armored vehicles. As many as the US has.
Arguably Ukraine is as militarily formidable as the US, the problem is, Russia is still 6x larger than Ukraine's military.
