Dynamics between China & US can impact regional security
-
SINGAPORE: Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean warned that the dynamics between the US and China today can bring about potential competition and friction, which can in turn impact the regional security environment.
He was speaking at the Committee of Supply debate for the Defence Ministry on Wednesday.
As China undergoes a leadership transition and the US - with a presidential election next year - both sides cannot afford to appear weak, said Mr Teo.
However, as both countries want to deepen their trade relationships with Southeast Asian nations, he said this development can help to foster good relations between the US and China.
On evolving threats to Singapore's security, Mr Teo said the Singapore Armed Forces stands ready to deal with them.
"The SAF's mission has not changed. Its mission remains to deter threats to Singapore's security, territorial integrity and sovereignty; and should deterrence fail, to secure a swift and decisive victory over the aggressor. One example of the wider spectrum of operations the SAF undertakes today is in homeland security," said Mr Teo.
