The best way to answer such potentially damaging political questions is...

Make a very wide and expressive shrug with your arms, mouth, shoulders, and eyebrows...like Woody Allen would if he was asked a potentially embarrassing question by his enraged wife or girlfriend, and accompany it with a sort of incredulous "You're asking ME????" expression. Try to look extremely innocent and noncommital at the same time.

If pressed, venture to say that you have no firm opinion about that.

If it's a very specific question, just look puzzled and remain silent. Sigh deeply. Scratch your nose. Look down at the floor.

If all else fails, say, "Excuse me, I have to attend to an urgent call of nature," and leave the room.
