LONDON, Oct 31, (APP/AFP) – The head of British intelligence agency MI5, Andrew Parker, on Monday warned of Russia acting in “increasingly aggressive ways” and utilising new technologies in its opposition to the west. “It is using its whole range of state organs and powers to push its foreign policy abroad in increasingly aggressive ways — involving propaganda, espionage, subversion and cyber-attacks. “Russia is at work across Europe and in the UK today. It is MI5’s job to get in the way of that,” Parker told the Guardian newspaper. The director general of the UK’s domestic security service was speaking after British warships earlier this month shadowed a Russian aircraft carrier battle group through the North Sea, which was en route to the eastern Mediterranean.
