LONDON — When Richard Moore became head of Britain's secret intelligence service MI6 in October 2020, he marked the occasion uniquely by announcing his arrival with a tweet and an emoji, a first for a top British spy.

Moore has expressed that Britain and Japan are natural partners, citing their close cultural ties and similar world views. His remarks come amid ongoing geopolitical challenges involving major powers such as China and Russia.

The former MI6 chief underscores the importance of trust between allies in navigating today's turbulent global environment.
