Blaise Metreweli, the new head of MI6, warns in her speech that Russia poses a major threat, calling for an intensification of the use of technology in security.

Blaise Metreweli, the first woman to lead MI6, warns that Russia poses an "aggressive, expansionist, and revisionist" threat in a scheduled speech. Blaise Metreweli, who took office in October, emphasizes that the United Kingdom is facing an "era of uncertainty" and reaffirms support for Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression.

She highlights the need to use technology to combat security threats, including terrorism and disinformation. Richard Knighton, the head of the British armed forces, advocates for a "whole society" approach to defense, emphasizing the growing risks from Russia. Blaise Metreweli also refers to Russian threats, including neurotoxin attacks and the use of artificial intelligence for disinformation. This situation comes in the context of international discussions for a peace plan in Ukraine.
