SINGAPORE: Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan has raised the impact of America’s tariffs and export controls with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who said these were not directed at Singapore.
“But nevertheless, there is a lot of work in the next few months to ensure that there are no adverse secondary impacts on Singapore, so we will have to continue to engage the administration very, very closely in the months ahead,” said Dr Balakrishnan in a statement after they met on June 4.
