Russia Insisder — Russia Policy Suggestions by Former PM, Yevgeny Primakov

Foreign relations:
Keep links to west to preserve room for maneuver, but China bonds more important
 
Arctic Oil:
Not profitable at current prices
 
Sanctions:
Prospects for a color revolution are nil
 
Charlie Hebdo:
Inappropriate for Russia
 
Ukraine:
Concessions on Crimea are off the table
Direct intervention in East Ukraine likewise
Indirect aid to Donbass if Kiev attacks militarily
Ultimate goal is Donbass nominally part of Ukraine with peaceful means
 
(Rossiyskaya Gazeta)
I would guess that this is close to Putin's thinking.
