    It is not a country. So there is nothing like a UN defined name. So no one can force any country to name it the way they want. Don’t think it’s Trump decision Maybe the U.S. Board on Geographic Names?

    Like you call it Persian Gulf, other countries call it Gulf of Arabia, and Turkey actually even calls it Gulf of Basra. (Btw, you legally have to call it Türkiye nowadays. It actually “changed it’s birth certificate” at the UN. Doubt you care about that.)
