Youtube live link - he's speaking in English

Edited the title to more accurately reflect the content of the speech. The original title was based on the title of the video and should have included a question mark but I ran out of characters in the title

Prime Minister of Singapore is live now talking about ending trade ties with the U.S.

I'm listening. But it doesn't sound good so far. He's talking about the greatness of the U.S. post WW2 at the moment.

Let me know when he gets to the part about Chinese trade behavior.


You’re listening to geopolitics and not understanding the theatre you’re watching.

Here you go. You really think they’d do this then I have a ski resort condo for sale in Bunkie, LA.

United States: China's top export market, with a value of $524.7 billion in 2023.

China's second-largest export market is Hong Kong. In 2023, China exported goods worth approximately $274.52 billion to Hong Kong.

He's actually speaking pretty reasonably so far

He seems to have a pretty good understanding of things

Question (the defensive back)

Is he really saying he wants to end trade with the U.S.?

PowerTool’s answer (the running back)

I'm listening. But it doesn't sound good so far. He's talking about the greatness of the U.S. post WW2 at the moment

When the US was giving everything to everybody for free?

Who wouldn't think we're great when we're giving everything away for free?

1) Singapore isn’t going to stop trading with us

2) it’s one city

Try not to get too excited…. Singapore’s elite are all ethnic Chinese…. Like much of SE Asia.

They import 2x more from the U.S.A. than we do from them.

I am OK with their offer.

Not completely of course

Yeah...and they're a very important financial hub in Asia.

Right. But what he is talking about applies to all of our trade partners.
