    Administration of Donald J. Trump, 2019 Remarks Prior to a Meeting with Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong of Singapore and an Exchange With Reporters in New York City September 23, 2019 President Trump. Well, thank you very much. As we just said, we signed a very important agreement having to do with defense and mutual defense and, I guess you could say, mutual offense also. But we—we're now going to talk about trade. We do tremendous amounts of trade with Singapore. And the Prime Minister—highly respected. One of the truly most respected men anywhere in the world. And he's been my friend for a long time. And we're doing very well. But we do tremendous trade with Singapore, and we appreciate it very much, Mr. Prime Minister. Prime Minister Lee. Well, thank you, Mr. President. As you said, we just signed an agreement to extend our memorandum of understanding on defense cooperation. President Trump. Right. Prime Minister Lee. It's the second time we are extending this. It reflects a very good defense relationship we have between the two countries, but also reflects our broader cooperation and friendship. And, in economics, we have an FTA between the U.S. and Singapore. President Trump. Right. Prime Minister Lee. The volume of trade is substantial and the volume of investments too. In Singapore, you are one—you are our most important foreign investor. And, in America, as small as we are, we have $55 billion worth of investments—— President Trump. That's not too bad. Prime Minister Lee.
