He said so after not answering the first time. It was legally necessary for Jesus to condemn Himself to die by stating He was the Son of Man.
But this one example does not prove that Jesus always gave straight answers.
We have many chapters of gospels which prove that Jesus did not give straight answers. When asked a question he answered with a question, and when he did give some answer it was in the form of a riddle.
I think Lee's response to the Russia person was very clever and very spiritual too.
