I'm very disappointed by the Singapore Defence Minister remarks on Taiwan at #SLD25 . It is "up to the Chinese people" as what occurs with Taiwan. 🤦♂️🙄 A big cop out.

#SLD25 panel on defence innovation w/ defence chiefs from Germany & India, Ukr dep def min & Indopacom cdr. German chief: innovation cycles in war now short as 15 days. “There is no rear area any more.” AI “key to integrate data across all domains. “Both high & low tech needed”
Finnish DM: Best way to counter hybrid action is to lay a red line somewhere. Threat will grow & grow. Doesn’t specify where red lines should lie or what consequences that crossing them should trigger. But Fr DM contests cyber attacks on a hospital v 300-400 hospitals (“act of war”) #sld25
“AI will be brutal to our defence systems ,” says French armed forces minister. “Stronger than that of computers or the military use of the atom.” #SLD25

Hearing Hegseth talk of a possible Chinese invasion of Taiwan at #SLD25 took me back to my recent visit.
It didn’t feel like Taiwan was ready — and I tried to capture why in this piece.
#SLD25 🇯🇵 Defense Min Nakatani coined a new concept, calling for an OCEAN (One Cooperative Effort Among Nations) spirit to uphold rules based order, transparence & inclusiveness. Away from FOIP "strategy" or "vision" & any kind of "Asian NATO". He also mentioned strategic autonomy as essential.
EU HR/VP Kaja Kallas at #SLD25 makes a powerful statement to uphold international law. EU seeking closer partnerships with India and Australia. No mention of any association with CPTPP though.
Europe's key message to SE Asia: Russia and China threats are linked, and we need to work together to preserve the rules based order.
“If you are worried about China, you should be worried about Russia,” the EU's HR/VP Kaja Kallas told the #SLD25 in Singapore www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
#SLD25 🇺🇸 Défense Sec. Hegseth hammering that US - a force for peace - will stay engaged in Indo-Pacific. Calling Asian allies & partners to raise défense spending to 5%, as Europeans commit. Europeans should focus on defending their continent where their comparative advantage is.
I wonder if US arms manufacturers and the investment funds who hold their stocks are listening to Macron at #SLD25. TACO ‘s policy has created a major shift in the market for their goods. Macron is explicitly explaining the necessity of EU making their own arms.
Macron delivering an excellent speech on global politics at #SLD25. Ukraine, Gaza, Taiwan, N Korea, Russia, China, global order integrity, paraphrasing ‘the daily changing opinion of a single person’, excellent speech. Frankly I am pretty jealous. I wish Harris was speaking for the US at this.
Exclusive: DNI Tulsi Gabbard leading the U.S. delegation to Singapore for Asia’s top security summit, Shangri-La Dialogue.
This is her second major trip to Asia in recent months and a clear signal of the Trump administration’s focus on the Indo-Pacific. #SLD25

As we head to the 22nd IISS Shangri-La Dialogue next week, @morganmichaels.bsky.social & I look at why & how ASEAN should develop a crisis-response architecture “capable of handling a regional contingency that may come sooner rather than later.”👇🏻 #SLD25

💭 I often ask myself, is society fairer today than it was in 1993⁉️
⚠️The 2024 race riots was a reminder of how much work is still left to do.
What future do you wish for the next generation ❓ #SLD25
We must play our part in shaping a fairer more inclusive society❤️🩹
On Stephen Lawrence Day, we remember his life and celebrate his continuing legacy. An important day to reflect on how we can all do more to challenge injustices #KnowledgeChangesEverything #PowerofLearning #SLD25
We’re proud to support the #SLD25 and its mission to drive lasting change through education, opportunity, and community.
As psychiatrists, we see every day how equity, inclusion, and hope shape mental wellbeing and future potential 🧡
