Why bother?

  • If he'd said it front of the media, it would have been a headline.
  • The two stories I've seen about this bury the hot mic part after the national sovereignty bit.
  • There isn't any level of protection that he'd get by saying it to a room of millionaires and billionaires instead of the media.
  • Googling for "hot mic accident" shows a surprising number of results.

Without evidence to the contrary, Occam's razor (and a backhand with Hanlon's razor) both suggest it was a goof by the sound tech rather than unnecessary theatrics.
