Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded sarcastically to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's claims about the history of North America, proposing the renaming of the continent to 'América Mexicana' or 'Mexican America'. This exchange raises questions about Sheinbaum's diplomatic approach towards Trump's policies.
Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum responded sarcastically to U.S. President-elect Donald Trump 's claims about the history of North America. Standing before a global map in her daily press briefing, Sheinbaum proposed dryly that North America should be renamed “América Mexicana,” or “Mexican America,” because a founding document dating from 1814 that preceded Mexico’s constitution referred to it that way. Sheinbaum also noted that the Gulf of Mexico had been named that way since 1607.
This exchange has sparked discussions about the bilateral relationship between Mexico and the U.S. and how Sheinbaum would handle Trump's strong-handed diplomatic approach, promises of mass-deportations, and threats of crippling taxes on trading partners like Mexico. Sheinbaum's predecessor, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, was able to build a relationship with Trump as an ally, even though he leaned left politically. He agreed to block migrants from going north under U.S. pressure, benefiting Trump's policies. However, it remains unclear if Sheinbaum, a scientist and leftist with a different political style, can establish the same relationship with Trump. While her sarcastic remark quickly spread on social media, it also hinted at the potential tone of future interactions between the two leaders. Experts suggest that humor can be a powerful tactic in projecting strength, which Trump often seeks in diplomatic relationships
