In a recital of cynicism, Dmitry Medvedev, vice president of the Russian Security Council, and a close associate of the Russian president, said today that Russia did not target the delegation of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelesny during yesterday’s missile attack on the port of Odessa, because if he aimed at her he would succeed.

Dmitry Medvedev said characteristically that “Moscow would have hit its target, if that was the target, and it is obvious to everyone that there was no planned attack on the motorcade.”

“It is obvious to everyone. And that there was no blow against the convoy in Odessa. And that if it was a goal, we would achieve it” Medvedev wrote on his Telegram channel.

Nullum malum sine aliquo bono!’ (no evil pure good) concludes the Russian official.

Earlier, an adviser to the Ukrainian presidency stated that it cannot be ruled out that the Russian missile attack on the port of Odessa yesterday was aimed at the missions of Volodymyr Zelensky or the Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis.

“It was really less from 500 meters from us. What was that?…You can’t rule out that it was headed for my president’s mission or the mission of a foreign guest”stated Ihor Zovkvaa high-ranking Ukrainian diplomatic adviser, in an interview with CNN
