  On the question of Del
Piero, I don't know if Katarina Peitlova would
agree, but to my untrained ear the sequence in
question sounds more like a Slovak diphthong than
a Russian /je/.

That's right.  But for Russian pronunciation it will be  like
Пьер Безухов from " Война и мир"

Katarina Peitlova PhDr.
Italy
John Dunn.

*Which casts an interesting light on how
anglophones perceive certain initial consonant
clusters .
