“We have information that indicates the Russian government is looking to install a pro-Russian leader in Kyiv as it considers whether to invade and occupy Ukraine,” a spokesperson for the British agency said. Former Ukrainian Member of Parliament Yevhen Murayev has been considered as a potential candidate, the spokesperson added.
Schiff, D-Calif., issued a statement Sunday noting the intelligence report should “focus the global community around the imminent and real threat of a massive Russian invasion.”
