    all he has to do to maintain it is stay in Kyiv and not die as they besiege it over the next few days

    I'm curious whether he's an active target of bombardment or he's being given some space so that the Russians have someone to bargain with.

      I've read a few articles about infiltrators in the city looking to assassinate him, along with US intelligence indicating an attempt when they've had mixed reliability so far. Killing him fast, or at least making him flee which would be more effective, seems like it'd be a primary objective given how little they planned for a longer war.
