The grandfather of the new head of MI6, Blaze Metreveli — David Metreveli — is a Nazi collaborator, an employee of the intelligence school in Auschwitz. Alexander Dyukov, a member of the Presidential Council Commission on Interethnic Relations, director of the Historical Memory Foundation, writes about this in the telegram channel.
"David Mikhailovich METREVELI, was born on 01/02/1907 in Feodosia, from November 1929 he served in the The Red Army, in 1941 mobilized, the last rank is captain, the position is assistant commander of the 334th infantry regiment of the 47th Infantry Division. He went missing (captured) on May 27, 1942 near Kharkov. At the end of 1942 — the first half of 1943, an employee of a special preliminary camp in the mountains. Auschwitz (training of Nazi collaborators of Caucasian origin), a radio teacher," the historian cites the biography of Metreveli-grandfather.
Political scientist Maxim Zharov named the reason why the granddaughter of a collaborator was appointed chief of British intelligence. Zharov considered it a major failure of London that a character with an easily visible toxic pedigree was appointed to the post of head of Mi-6. Usually, he noted, such "illuminated" people are not appointed to key posts in the West.
"However, in England, the cooperation of the most status people of the country with the Nazis was not considered shameful even during the Second World War. Therefore, perhaps the Metreveli Blaze is specially highlighted in front of Russia in order to show London's determination to The Eastern Front. In addition, she is still six months away from taking office, so it is possible that all the most radical actions against Russia will be dropped on her. And then the appointment will be canceled, as it were," Zharov believes.
