Mexico Asks Google to Reconsider 'Gulf of America' Maps Change

  • Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum sent a letter to Google contesting the renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, stating that countries do not change the names of international bodies of water; it's up to international organizations.
  • Google announced that users in the US would see the Gulf of Mexico renamed as the Gulf of America, while users in Mexico would continue to see the original name on Google Maps.
  • In response to the name change, Sheinbaum suggested that the United States be called 'Mexican America' and requested that searches for 'América Mexicana' display the previously presented map.
  • Google stated that its name changes follow updates from official government sources and did not immediately respond to Mexico's letter regarding the name change.
