MI6 - MI6

Japanese: MI6 - エムアイシックス
MI6 - MI6
A British intelligence agency whose main mission is intelligence activities overseas. In the waning days of the Cold War, British Prime Minister Major, who aimed for an open government, officially acknowledged the existence of MI6 for the first time in May 1993. Similarly, there is MI5, whose main mission is to uncover domestic espionage, but in July of the same year, the Home Office's Security Service (MI5) itself published a pamphlet explaining its activities, and its female director appeared in front of a television camera. After the Cold War, its main mission became the prevention of terrorism, including that of the Irish Republican Army (IRA).
