Details: Medvedev called Ukraine "Malorossia" (Little Russia) and a "failed state", and its citizens "slaves to Europe", "deaf and dumb servants" and "expendables".

He also believes that Ukrainians and Russians share a common history, language, faith and "mentality towards everyday life" and should therefore be part of the same state.
