Mr Biden was referring to Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, who is currently chairing the 10-member regional bloc.

US President Joe Biden made yet another gaffe on Saturday at the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit. Speaking at the event, Mr Biden mixed up Colombia and Cambodia. He mistakenly thanked Colombia instead of Cambodia for hosting the ASEAN Summit.  Biden, in remarks at the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) Summit, thanks "the prime minister for Colombia" for his "leadership as ASEAN chair."The ASEAN chair is the prime minister of Cambodia. pic.twitter.com/1vJDGP9ljI

"It was an honour to host at the White House in May, and now that we are back together in Cambodia," the US President said as he opened the talks. "I look forward to building even stronger progress than we've already made. I want to thank the prime minister for Colombia's leadership as ASEAN chair," he added.
