"Ukraine is a sovereign independent state. Everyone should respect its traditions. The name of the capital city is KYIV. traditionally, this is the correct transliteration of one of the oldest cities of Ukraine."

"Kyiv is the only spelling that should be used by civilized English-language outlet!"

"Let's shake off the Soviet shakle, and maske it Kyiv!"

"It is about time that ALL media people showed respect by making the effort to CORRECTLY spell the capital city name of Ukraine!"

"Now that you have switched from Bombay to Mumbai, from Calcutta to Kolkata, and from Kishinev to Chisinau, why haven’t you switched from Kiev to Kyiv? The Christian Science Monitor already has, along with Facebook and Twitter.It’s a question of goodwill. "

"KYIV"

"Respect!!!"

"It is time to use correct transliteration of Ukrainian language place names for cities in Ukraine. Transliteration of cities in Ukraine from the Russian language is outdated and reflects the old no longer existant Soviet Union."
