LONDON - Britain’s intelligence agencies expect close relations with European and other foreign spy services to continue regardless of plans to quit the European Union, official sources said.
However, the terms of Britain’s EU divorce are still unclear, and the sources were anyway confident security cooperation would not be jeopardized given the West’s need for unity against threats ranging from Islamic militants to the far right. Since World War Two, London has had particularly strong intelligence links with the United States, and other members of the so-called “Five Eyes” alliance: Canada, Australia and New Zealand. That cooperation, the second source said, was “as strong as ever ... We all have shared threats and so working together on shared solutions keeps us all safer.
“We’re leaving the EU but not Europe,” GCHQ chief Jeremy Fleming said after meeting NATO officials in June 2018. “And after Brexit, the UK will continue to work with the EU and the EU member states. We have excellent relationships with intelligence and security agencies right across the continent.”
