Another brick in the wall: Lawyer admits lying to Russia inquiry

quote [ Alex van der Zwaan, the 19th person to be charged, pleads guilty to making false statements.

Who is Alex van der Zwaan?

He works for the New York law firm Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom based in London.

Last year, he married the art critic Eva Khan, whose father German Khan co-founded the Alfa Group, one of Russia's largest investment groups.

An article on their wedding in the Russian edition of Tatler magazine last year said that Van der Zwaan had Russian roots and worked with Russian oligarchs. ]

While the most recent charges have been related to the Kremlin's active measures ops, this latest announcement that most of Mueller's dominoes have been falling on the Manfort side relating back to the very dodgy work he did for Ukraine a decade or so ago.
