Two people from the U.S. say President Trump will call the Persian Gulf the Arabian Gulf next week.

Countries near Iran want to change the name of the sea, but Iran likes the old name.

Two people from the U.S. government talked to the news on Tuesday.

People call this sea the Persian Gulf for a long time. But in some Middle East countries, people call it the Arabian Gulf. Iran was called Persia before. In 2012, the country was angry with Google because they did not write a name for the sea on their maps.

In the U.S., Google Maps calls the water the Persian Gulf (Arabian Gulf). Apple Maps calls it the Persian Gulf.

For many years, the U.S. army said 'Arabian Gulf' when they meant 'Persian Gulf' in their messages and pictures.

Some people in Iran don't like the name of a sea. They like the name 'Persian Gulf' because of Iran's old history. In 2017, the American president used a different name. This made Iran's president say he should learn about countries.

Iran's minister said Trump helps countries if they pay him a lot of money.

On Wednesday, Iran's minister talked about the names of the seas. He said the names mean the seas are for all people, not just one country. They are important for everyone.

Abbas Araghchi wrote on X. He said changing the name of the Persian Gulf is not good. He said it shows they are not friends with Iran and its people.

This bad step will make Iranians in Iran, the U.S., and around the world very angry.

Trump can use a different name in the U.S., but he cannot tell other countries what name to use.

This group helps make maps of the world's seas and oceans. Sometimes countries use different names for the same sea.

Trump will visit Qatar and the UAE too. He wants their money and help for the US.

The U.S. president has business in these countries. He still owns them.

Trump said he wanted to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America.

The Associated Press sued the government because its reporters could not go to many events.

A judge said the AP can write what it wants. He said the government cannot stop them.
