achieve

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'get' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'leader away from kiev in discomfort' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'leader' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is located in the answer.
'away' could be 'a' (abbreviation as used in sports fixtures) and 'a' is found within the answer.
'from' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'chiv' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?
