As an aside I only found out last week about the spelling and pronunciation of Kyiv is keev as the other version is Russian. And also that Ukraine doesn't have The before it as again that is the Russian way of saying it.

I live and learn.

No it isn't
It drives me mad, that pronounciation.

It’s two syllables, whether Київ or Kиев

But the Ukrainian sound is softer, as is typical of The language

They are the BBC and Pronunciation should be expected... but on a lighter note its Draclia... as opposed to Dracular.
