Details: Medvedev responded to comments by Finnish President Alexander Stubb that relations with Russia have changed forever.

Quote: "Some guy called Stubb says Finland's relations with Russia have changed forever. Agreed. I hope so too. I hope Russia never repeats the Bolsheviks' 1917 blunder. Finland's got to pay for its vile Russophobia. In fact, it's already paying – Stubb talks, and citizens foot the bill."

Background:

• Last year, Medvedev issued threats against countries that have recently joined NATO, claiming they have automatically become targets for the Russian armed forces, "including potential retaliatory strikes and even nuclear components".
• Earlier, Sergei Naryshkin, Director of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service, said that the "provocateur countries" represented by Poland and the Baltic states should understand that they will be the first to suffer as a result of a possible NATO aggression against the Union State of Russia and Belarus.
