Mexico Stands Up to Google's Name Change of Gulf of Mexico
What's in a name? A lot, according to Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum. She's pushing back against Google's plan to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, following an executive order by US President Donald Trump. But Google's not backing down, saying they follow official government sources for name changes.
Meanwhile, Sheinbaum is having a bit of fun at Trump's expense, joking that Mexico may demand Google rename 'Mexican America' on the map."He says that he will call it the Gulf of America on its continental shelf," Sheinbaum previously said. "For us it is still the Gulf of Mexico, and for the entire world it is still the Gulf of Mexico."
