Mexico’s president, Claudia Sheinbaum, has suggested North America could be renamed ‘Mexican America’ in response to Donald Trump’s pledge to rename the Gulf of Mexico the ‘Gulf of America’.

The comments came after Trump talked about a broad expansionist agenda that could include taking control of the Panama canal, Greenland and Canada.
