Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum challenged U.S. President Trump's executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico, asserting its relevance only to the U.S. continental shelf. She indicated that Mexico would take legal action against Google, which altered its maps based on the order, to restore the Gulf's original name in Mexican territories. Sheinbaum emphasized Mexico's maritime sovereignty, referencing international laws and suggesting that the dispute also serves as a critical commentary on U.S. governance, mocking Trump’s authority.
President Claudia Sheinbaum stated that the U.S.'s executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico applies only to the U.S. continental shelf, not to Mexican waters.
Mexico wrote to Google to clarify that the sovereignty over territorial seas extends to 12 nautical miles and will not accept the renaming within its jurisdiction.
