Bruegel Event Recordings

On 11 September we were honoured to welcome S. Iswaran, Singapore’s Minister for Communications and Information and Minister-in-charge of Trade Relations who engaged in a conversation with Cecilia Malmström, European Commissioner for Trade. They discussed EU-Singapore relations in the context of the wider region and times of global upheaval. The EU and Singapore signed a Free Trade Agreement and an Investment Protection Agreement in 2018. These agreements are an important symbol for the countries’ commitment to free trade in a time of rising protectionism and could also signal a future FTA with ASEAN.
