An interesting read. Kinda' lets you know where the author's mind is.

http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/66181

"During the recent Direct Line, when I was asked about Russian-Ukrainian relations, I said that Russians and Ukrainians were one people – a single whole. These words were not driven by some short-term considerations or prompted by the current political context. It is what I have said on numerous occasions and what I firmly believe. I therefore feel it necessary to explain my position in detail and share my assessments of today's situation...."
Kinda reminds me of similar thought by a guy in 1938
