Well, in High School Band, we played Great Gate of Kiev.
So I know it is pronounced Kee’-ev.
This is way back, before public education was ruined.

Sure, that’s the American pronunciation, which is perfectly fine, but these Congressmen gotta go Ukrainian or Russian and be ethnically and Russian-linguistically correct.

SAme here. I learned in high school the correct pronunciation, and I graduated in 1972. It’s Key-ev
