Singapore has expressed grave concern over the United States’ military intervention in Venezuela, emphasising its commitment to international law and the principles of the UN Charter, particularly the protection of sovereignty and territorial integrity for small states. The response from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs comes amid wider unease across the Asia-Pacific over how major power actions are shaping the global order.

Drew Thompson, Senior Fellow at the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS) at Nanyang Technological University joins the Breakfast Show to examine how Singapore’s response should be understood, why events far from the region can carry implications for Asia-Pacific security, and what this moment reveals about the relationship between power, precedent and international law in an increasingly uncertain world.
