It means to have a direct connection with something else or to be related to something else. So some other comment he or someone else made was related to "a promising public statement". Sorry. I don't know the rest of the info to tell you what is actually being related here.

Example: Mark: Annoying brats shouldn't be allowed in this movie theater. Kim: Hey! I have a young child! Mark: I was referring to children that cry during an entire movie, not to your son. He is well behaved.
