As Maya Angelou said, “When people show you who they are, believe them the first time”.
On the morning of April 3rd Russian state propaganda outlet RIA Novosti (here forward referred simply as RIA) published a chilling article which can only be described as a roadmap for genocide on the scale of which we have not seen since the Holocaust in World War Two. There may be some people who would argue that this does not represent Russian state policy, however it must be reminded that RIA is a state owned media outlet and nothing is published on this level which does not, at the bare minimum, represent the desires and interest of the Russian government.
The details are chilling and I will link both the original source document as well as the translated summary twitter thread.
Here is the original text link for those who wish to translate themselves so there can be no accusations about taking things out of context:

And the Twitter summary:
The points of the plan are simple, chilling and should seem familiar to all, we’ve seen this before.
1: The plan outlined indicates that nearly every Ukranian, I’m sure with exceptionally few provisions for otherwise, to be identified as a Nazi. What more you ask? This Russian textbook call for genocide lists not just “elites” as Nazis, but most of the people as they are “passive nazis”. The first point calls for them to be “killed in numbers as much as possible”.
2: Elimination of Ukrainian culture as it is “Nazi”. The plan calls for extreme censorship and control of both culture, politics and education to prevent “Nazi culture” from continuing. Simply put this means that any and all Ukrainians which were not “passive Nazis” to be re-educated and have every piece of their cultural identity erased.
3: Calls for both economic and political destruction of Ukraine. It explicitly says that Ukraine and Ukrainians must be treated as an enemy of Russia and that they must be made wholly and entirely, without any trace of another option, dependent on Russia. It refuses the idea of even neutrality for Ukraine and the people, they can only be consumed by Russia.
4: Calls for deukrainification of Ukraine. This is continuing the plan to eliminate Ukrainian culture and elimination of Ukraine as a sovereign state. It refers to “denazified republics (plural)” and their inability to act in terms of military, law enforcement or policy without direct, explicit permission from Russia.
5: It labels Ukraine and Ukrainians as enemies. Ukraine is an Anti-Russia and cannot be allowed to exist. It states that Ukraine must not only cease to exist, it must be de-europeanized. Apparently being European is now the same as being a Nazi. It states clearly that Ukraine cannot exist as a nation state as it is an artificial construct. This rhetoric is the same as the Nazi push to eliminate Poland as a nation state..that it was an artificial construct.
6: Finally, the grand finale, civilian populations must be liquidated. The “Bandera-elites” and those who support and benefit from them must be exterminated as they cannot be re-educated and the “swamp” (wonder where they got that from) who supported the current state of Ukraine must be made to feel terror and pay for their guilt.
Thats it folks. RIA has laid out a modern day Holocaust before our very eyes.
The Russians are showing us who they really are, and we should believe them.
