Iran: Not Our Fight, Still Our Problem
Professor Joseph Liow, chairman of the Middle East Institute, joins Lens on Singapore’s Claressa Monteiro to cut through the noise around the Iran conflict and bring it into the Singapore context.
Two Singaporeans in conversation about energy exposure, diplomatic tightropes, social cohesion and what it really means to be a small open economy in an increasingly volatile world. This is not a lecture about the Middle East. It is a frank assessment of where Singapore stands and what could come next.
Highlights of the conversation:
02:59 Why peace is hard
06:31 How exposed are we
10:10 Will this war end soon
15:13 Social strain and polarisation
17:51 Singapore as ASEAN chair
