During a campaign reception in California's Portola Valley, US President Joe Biden committed his latest gaffe by addressing North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un as the president of South Korea.
The incident took place while Biden was criticizing former President Donald Trump for his relationships with Kim Jong Un and Russian President Vladimir Putin, as reported by Hindustan Times.
The remark was captured in a White House transcript of Biden's remarks at the reception. President Biden is noted for making blunders in naming global leaders.
