If it is, and falls, the Lviv could become the de facto capital, in the manner of Bonn, in a divided nation….

It is past time to leave Ukraine’: western diplomats flee Kyiv

….The US and Canadian embassies have sent non-essential staff and family members home and are evacuating others to the western Ukrainian city of Lviv. American, Canadian and British military trainers in the country have also been withdrawn.

Office space and hotel rooms in Lviv are at a premium as diplomats and businesses temporarily relocate there. Britain’s ambassador, Melinda Simmons, will stay in Kyiv and work with a core team, while other British diplomats have been sent home.….

Lyiv was once a Polish city , it may become part of Poland again if the Ukraine is taken off the map like Poland was for 123 years after the partition.
Ironic that the Polish army may end up defending a city where poles were slaughtered by Ukrainians in the Polish Ukrainian war . A very dark sense of humour is required when you have a stand up comedian for a leader .
