Original Note:
The spelling of Київ in Ukrainian hasn't changed, what did change is its English transliteration In 1995 Kyiv was ratified as the acceptable spelling by the Ukrainian government and this was approved by the UN in 2012 In 2018 a campaign began to publicize the proper spelling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KyivNotKiev#Spelling_of_Kyiv_prior_to_KyivNotKiev
