The article is dedicated to the research of the Great Britain foreign policy modern transformational processes caused by Brexit and newly elaborated conception of «Global Britain». Great Britain’s exit from the EU witnesses the beginning of transformations supposed to gain her global «smart power» role. In British government foreign policy strategic documents and analytic materials one can find an explanation of global role, that is secured through the development of mutual multilevel cooperation within CANZUK countries (Canada, Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom) and the Commonwealth strengthened by traditional «special relationship» with the USA and close interconnections with the English-speaking nations. Operational function of the global role is relied on the unique capabilities provided by the Five Eyes community (Canada, Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, USA), since 1946 officially in action. Key words: National Security Strategy; Brexit; «Global Britain»; «Fusion» doctrine; CANZUK; Five Eyes; «smart power».
