📝On January 20, 47th US President Donald Trump signed an executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of the Americas. This decision, according to the president, should emphasize the importance of the region for the history, economy and energy security of the United States.
The Gulf provides 14% of US oil production and a significant part of natural gas. The decree recognizes its role as an important economic resource and transportation hub.
🇲🇽Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded to the initiative with humor, noting that for Mexico and the world this Gulf will remain Mexican.
