"I'm not against vodka - they just asked us. They put out some story about us entertaining international celebrities with vodka, which of course wasn't true"

This quote by Robin Day recommends that he is not opposed to vodka, but that he was asked about it. He is referring to a story that was spread about him and his partners entertaining worldwide stars with vodka, which he states is not real. This quote suggests that he was inquired about vodka, and that he was not the one who spread the story. It likewise suggests that he is not against vodka, but that he does not always back it either. He is just stating that the story was not true and that he was inquired about it. This quote might be translated as a way of distancing himself from the story, while still not completely denouncing vodka.
