Foreign Policy
Singapore's foreign policy is shaped by vulnerability -- a small, multi-ethnic city-state between two much larger Muslim-majority neighbors (Malaysia and Indonesia). This drives a pragmatic, multi-aligned approach: close security ties with the US, deep economic engagement with China, and strong ASEAN commitment.
Singapore champions international law, free trade, and the rules-based order as existential necessities for small states. It maintains robust defense ties through the Five Power Defence Arrangements and bilateral agreements with the US, India, and Australia.
