Mexico has initiated a lawsuit against Google on Friday for changing the name for the 바카라Gulf of Mexico바카라 to the 바카라Gulf of America.바카라 The move comes after legislation was approved on Thursday by Republicans in the House of Representatives assenting Trump바카라s policy of renaming the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.

While addressing a morning news conference, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum announced that 바카라lawsuit has already been filed,바카라 although specific details pertaining to the lawsuit like when and where have not been revealed.

The executive order was signed by Trump on his first day in office in January arguing that it is the US who does most of the work and claimed it to be theirs. 

The Mexican president has claimed that this decision applies only to the US portion of the Gulf while asserting that the US lacks authority to change the name of the entire area. 

Sheinbaum had earlier sent a letter to Google urging them to retract the name change for US users while also threatening legal action in the following month.

Google had responded to her request stating that it followed its long standing practice pertaining to name changes. The technology giant said that it makes changes to names when updates by official government sources. 

When the bill was proposed in the House, it was opposed by every democrat making it difficult to get the senate바카라s assent. Even if the bill is passed, countries are not under obligation to recognize the change.
