Google says it will take its cue from the U.S. government if it has to change the names of the Gulf of Mexico and Denali on its Maps service.

The company said that it will only make changes when the government updates its official listings for the body of water and the mountain. After taking office, President Donald Trump ordered that the water bordered by the United States, Mexico and Cuba be renamed to the Gulf of America.

He also ordered America’s highest mountain peak be changed back to Mt. McKinley.
