  Email from Foreign Names Committee Chair, Sept. 11, 2019: (An amended version of the current Kyiv statement will be posted to the website. It will explain that the 1965 BGN/PGN Ukraninan Romanization, which is currently used for other place names in Ukraine, renders the name of the city as "Kyyiv." The approved name "Kyiv" represents a locally-used Latin alphabet rendering and it has been the approved name since 2006 based upon a recommendation form the U.S. State Department. The name "Kiev" has been changed from a conventional name to a variant name in the BGN database, and "Kiev" is no longer considered appropriate for official use.)
