Patrick M. Cronin

Asia-Pacific Security Chair

Singapore stands at the crossroads of traditional maritime routes and the forefront of rapidly evolving digital and energy infrastructure, making it a crucial partner amid great power rivalries and shifts in global trade dynamics. It is also a diplomatic locus, hosting increasingly vital gatherings like the Shangri-La Dialogue. This strategic position has helped Singapore forge enduring partnerships—including its vital relationship with the United States.

The US-Singapore relationship is one of America’s strongest partnerships in Asia, built on decades of trust and mutual strategic interest. In the face of emerging challenges and opportunities, the relationship has extended beyond traditional pillars like defense and commerce into frontier areas including artificial intelligence and biotechnology.

Singapore’s Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan will join Hudson Asia-Pacific Security Chair Patrick Cronin to explore critical questions facing Singapore, Southeast Asia, and the Indo-Pacific.
