Trump's Gulf Renaming Stirs International Dispute

News summary

President Donald Trump's executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico to the 'Gulf of America' has sparked significant controversy and mixed reactions. The change has been implemented in the U.S. by Google and Apple Maps, though Mexico and other countries continue to use the original name. Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum has threatened legal action against Google for complying with the order, arguing that the name change applies only to U.S. waters. Despite domestic implementation, international recognition remains contentious, exemplified by media outlets like the Associated Press refusing to use the new name. The renaming has led to backlash from the public, with many Americans criticizing the decision. This move reflects broader tensions between the Trump administration and major tech companies, with Apple particularly criticized for its perceived lack of alignment with Trump's policies.
