Recently, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America. According to a statement from Google, Google Maps will partially adhere to this change. The company noted that it typically updates names based on official government sources. Consequently, users in Mexico will still see &#8220;Gulf of Mexico,&#8221; while those in the U.S. will view &#8220;Gulf of America.&#8221; Sheinbaum argues that international law only permits a country to claim waters within 12 nautical miles from its coast and believes that only America&#8217;s section should bear Trump&#8217;s proposed name. Additionally, Mexico seeks for much of North America to be referred to as &#8220;Mexican America.&#8221; However, support for Sheinbaum&#8217;s stance appears limited; recently Chevron referenced &#8220;Gulf of America&#8221; in a financial report as a nod to Trump\u2019s initiative.
