Zelensky Hits Back at Putin for Blame on Attack

KYIV, UKRAINE - APRIL 23: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky sits for a press conference on April 23, 2022 in Kyiv, Ukraine. The Ukrainian president said he is expecting U.S.Secretary Antony Blinken and U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin to visit the following day, the highest American delegation since the beginning of the war. He renewed calls for more weapons and other forms of support from allied countries as Ukraine defends itself from Russian's assault, which began two months ago. (Photo by John Moore/Getty Images)

Ukrainians knew it was coming and when it did, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was ready with a few choice words of his own.

What Ukrainians knew was Russian President Vladimir Putin was going to blame them for the Moscow concert hall attack that hit on Friday, according to BBC.

Putin said the people who carried out the attack that killed 137 people, as of Sunday, fled to Ukraine where they were helped.

However, despite Putin’s accusations Saturday, the Islamic State group (IS) extremists had already announced they were responsible, per the outlet.

IS has released a video of the massacre, filmed on bodycams and including shouts of “God is Greatest” from the attackers.

Zelensky, in turn, was furious that his country was being blamed.

“He described the Russian president and others in Moscow as ‘scum’ for linking the attack there to Kyiv,” according to BBC.

The outlet added, “He suggested a ‘miserable’ Russian leader was more concerned about pinning the attack on Kyiv than reassuring his own citizens.”

Zelensky added that Putin sent “hundreds of thousands of [its own] terrorists” to Ukraine since February 2022, per the outlet.

“They burn our cities… they torture and rape,” Zelensky said.

If Putin’s theory was true, the suspects would have had to travel through a minefield to get to Ukraine, BBC reported.
