Brexit won't deter European security cooperation - intelligence chiefs |
2019-02-16 |
MUNICH (Reuters) - Britain’s exit from the European Union will not affect security cooperation with its NATO allies France and Germany, given the growing external threats to the continent’s stability, the intelligence chiefs of the three countries said on Friday. "The chiefs ... said that all three services would continue to be close allies in jointly protecting Europe from threats such as Islamism, terrorism, organised crime or cyber-attacks," the heads of Germany’s BND, France’s DGSE and Britain’s MI6 said in a rare joint statement. "This would also hold true... in view of Brexit," they said after meeting at the Munich Security Conference. Britain is due to leave the European Union on March 29. The British parliament last month rejected a withdrawal agreement reached by UK and EU negotiators, raising the possibility of a disruptive no-deal Brexit that could harm trade and other ties. |
