LONDON/KIYV — Russia will face severe economic sanctions if it installs a puppet regime in Ukraine, a senior British minister said on Sunday (Jan 23) after the United Kingdom (UK) accused the Kremlin of seeking to install a pro-Russian leader there.

"There'll be very serious consequences if Russia takes this move to try and invade but also install a puppet regime," British Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab told Sky News.

Mr Mykhailo Podolyak, a Ukrainian adviser to the presidential office, said the allegations should be taken seriously. "This morning I already read in all the news publications this conspiracy theory: absolutely unproven, absolutely unfounded," Mr Murayev told Reuters in a video call, adding he was considering legal action.

Also noting he was under sanctions, the Russian Embassy in London mocked the"obvious deterioration" of British expertise on the region. On Sunday the State Department said it was ordering the departure of eligible family members of staff from its embassy in Ukraine and said all US citizens should consider leaving due to the threat of military action from Russia.
