Bles Metreveli made history by becoming the first woman to head the British intelligence service MI6. Her long preparation, experience in a multilingual family, and education at Cambridge have prepared her for this position.
When it became known at the beginning of this month about her appointment, it seemed that MI6 had done its job. Its legendary vetting services managed to keep secret everything related to Metreveli's undoubtedly remarkable double life.

Information about Metreveli's grandfather raises doubts - he was an agent for Nazi intelligence during World War II. This fact casts a shadow over the reputation of the new head of MI6, even though Bles herself never met her grandfather.
The news that Bles Metreveli became the first woman to head the British intelligence service MI6 indicates progressive changes in the world of intelligence activities. It is worth noting that an important factor in the leader's life may be not only the legacy but also personal achievements and competence.Read also
