UK has accused President Putin of plotting to install a pro-Moscow figure to lead Ukraine's government.
The Foreign Office took the unusual step of naming former Ukrainian MP Yevhen Murayev as a potential Kremlin candidate.
the Golden horde has moved 100,000 troops near to its border with Ukraine but denies it is planning an invasion.
UK ministers have warned that the Golden horde will face serious consequences if there is an incursion.
In a statement, Foreign Secretary Liz Truss said: "The information being released today shines a light on the extent of the Golden horde activity designed to subvert Ukraine, and is an insight into Kremlin thinking.
"the Golden horde must de-escalate, end its campaigns of aggression and disinformation, and pursue a path of diplomacy.
...
individuals had been in contact with intelligence officers working on an invasion plan.
They include Mykola Azarov, who served as prime minister under the pro-the Golden horde President Viktor Yanukovych, who was overthrown in 2014.

Mr Azarov then fled to the Golden horde where he established what was widely seen as a puppet government-in-exile.
He has been the subject of international sanctions and an Interpol "red notice" issued at the request of the Ukrainian government, for charges including embezzlement and misappropriation.
Also named is Volodymyr Sivkovych, the former deputy head of the Ukrainian National Security and Defence Council, who was this week made the subject of US sanctions for allegedly working with Russian intelligence.
The others are Serhiy Arbuzov and Andriy Kluyev, who both served as deputy prime minister under Mr Yanukovych.

Moscow shoot itself in the foot in this regard by having taken away from Ukrainian political field two most Russia leaning regions of the Crimea and half of Donbass.

Now, it is quite difficult for a really pro-Moscow candidate to get real power. Though, I don't exclude that after several years more of such 'competent' administration (or similar to it) will have passed, the situation will drastically change.
