Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum expressed her government's willingness to file a civil lawsuit against Google if it continues to label the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America. This dispute arose after former President Trump’s declaration to change the name. Sheinbaum emphasized Mexico’s sovereignty over the region, citing historical context and international recognition of the Gulf of Mexico. Despite previously communicating their disagreement to Google, the tech giant stands by its naming standards, which vary based on location. Sheinbaum has consistently promoted the traditional name, stating its longstanding historical use and UN recognition.
Sheinbaum asserted that her government would consider a lawsuit against Google if the company continues to title the area the Gulf of America, asserting Mexico's sovereignty.
Despite a letter disputing Google's nomenclature, the company maintains its naming practices due to updates from official government sources, reflecting regional usage.
