A Russian academic who popped up in news articles regarding Gen. Michael Flynn (ret.) and improper contacts with Russian officials is suing those she says defamed her.
Svetlana Lokhova’s name first appeared in a London Times article in February 2017. American audiences learned of her through a Wall Street Journal article in March 2017, two months after Flynn was fired as incoming President Donald Trump’s national security adviser. The WSJ article, according to Lokhova, was laden with innuendo that she had an affair with Flynn after they met in 2014. At that time, Flynn had spoken at the Cambridge Intelligence Seminar in Great Britain and was invited to a dinner afterward with several attendees. Lokhova was among the group.
