The United States announced that it would hold a summit meeting in the ASEAN-Association of Southeast Asian Nations and the capital Washington at the end of this month, but it is expected to be postponed due to the schedule of multiple leaders on the ASEAN side not meeting.

The Biden administration in the United States announced on the 28th of last month that it will hold a summit meeting with ASEAN at the end of this month in Washington, and it was expected that strengthening cooperation in the security field etc. would be discussed against China.



Regarding this, an Indonesian government official who is in charge of scheduling with the United States said, "It is unlikely that it will be held this month," and said that it was expected to be postponed.



The reason is that the schedules of multiple leaders on the ASEAN side did not match, and the date after the postponement has not been decided so far.



Regarding the holding of the summit meeting, there were a series of confused voices from multiple ASEAN member countries that the United States announced the schedule in advance, and an official of the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affairs apologized that "the United States side mistakenly announced the schedule. There was. "
