Ukrainian First Presidential Assistant Serhiy Shefir said on Wednesday that he could not understand the reasons behind his assassination attempt.
He denied claims that the attack was somehow connected to alleged conflicts inside the presidential team.
“I do not understand the reasons. We were driving and heard some shots unexpectedly. The driver was wounded but he managed to keep moving.
“ I immediately called the police and the internal affairs minister. Law enforcement agents reacted quickly.
“I have already heard some idiotic theories on TV. There are no conflicts in our team of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, this information is fake,” Shefit said at a news conference.
