      The publication is American. Either he knew better and the editor “corrected” him as to “not confuse” the audience or he didn’t, or didn’t care to double-check, which just means that VOA has no standards when it comes to their correspondents knowing geography. Or their editors, who should catch such obvious mistakes.
