Mexican President Attacks Google for Using 'Gulf of America' Name

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum accused Google of violating the country’s sovereignty, leaving open the possibility of a lawsuit over the tech company labeling the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America in its maps feature. Sheinbaum argued President Trump’s executive order renaming the gulf applied only to the area of the continental shelf under U.S. control, according to a translation by CNN.
