Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum on Thursday urged Google to reconsider its decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico the "Gulf of America" for U.S. users, adding the country could file a civil suit against the firm if necessary.

Google changed the name for U.S. users of Google Maps to reflect the decision by the government of U.S. President Donald Trump to rename the Gulf of Mexico. Sheinbaum has repeatedly decried the move.
