"Increasingly aggressive" Russia poses an increasing threat to the stability of the UK and is using all the sophisticated tools at its disposal to achieve its aims, the director general of MI5 has told the Guardian. In the first newspaper interview given by an incumbent MI5 chief in the service’s 107-year history, Andrew Parker said that at a time when much of the focus was on Islamic extremism, covert action from other countries was a growing danger. Most prominent was Russia. Exclusive: 'There will be terrorist attacks in Britain,' says MI5 chief Read more “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 said Russia still had plenty of intelligence officers on the ground in the UK, but what was different now from the days of the cold war was the advent of cyberwarfare. Russian targets include military secrets, industrial projects, economic information and government and foreign policy. Parker said he was talking to the Guardian rather than any other newspaper despite the publication of the Snowden files and a consistent scepticism about the need for extra powers for the security services.

Half the country’s pre-war population — more than 11 million people — have been killed or forced to flee their homes. Families are struggling to survive inside Syria, or make a new home in neighboring countries. Others are risking their lives on the way to Europe, hoping to find acceptance and opportunity. And harsh winters and hot summers make life as a refugee even more difficult. At times, the effects of the conflict can seem overwhelming. Choi Soon-Sil - Scandal In South Korea The scandal involves allegations that she was responsible for masterminding governmental policy and decision making during Park's administration. Prosecutors have raided offices and homes linked to Choi. Park's secretaries have been ordered to resign following the scandal. She may have ordered Korean prosecutors to indict a Japanese journalist, Tatsuya Kato (Seoul Bureau chief of South Korea at Sankei Shimbun), for defamation for reporting that President Park and her former chief of staff, Chung Yoon-hoi, had a secret seven-hour meeting with Choi after the sinking of MV Sewol. Pseudo-Christian pastor Choi Tae-min is her father, and dressage athlete Chung Yoo-ra is her and her ex-husband's daughter. As of October 30, Choi Soon-sil has returned to South Korea and is facing prosecution. On October 31 she met with prosecutors, telling reporters “Please, forgive me. I’m sorry. I committed a sin that deserves death”. But one fact is simple: millions of Syrians need our help.
