川普提議將新墨西哥州改名為新美國州遭州長否決

Quick Look

美國總統川普提議將新墨西哥州更名為新美國州,但遭州長葛里向否決,她指出該州名早在美國存在前就屬於當地人,並認為此舉是為轉移對汽油價格上漲等議題的注意力。此前川普亦曾提出更名安大略湖為美國湖及荷莫茲海峽為川普海峽,但後者僅數小時後被其暗示非認真計畫。

Why It Matters

川普近期透過行政命令或公開發言提出多項地名更名建議,包括將安大略湖更名為美國湖及荷莫茲海峽更名為川普海峽,但後者僅數小時後被其暗示非認真計畫。新墨西哥州長期以來因其歷史與文化背景而保留原名,州長葛里向強調該州名具有深厚歷史根基。

(中央社華盛頓6日綜合外電報導)美國總統川普近日一連串的改名行動,今天找到一個出人意料的新目標,他提議把新墨西哥州(New Mexico)改為「新美國州」(New America)。

法新社報導,他的這項提議馬上遭到新墨西哥州州長否決。數天前,他才剛簽署一道行政命令,在與鄰國加拿大陷入貿易戰之際,把安大略湖(Lake Ontario)更名為「美國湖」(Lake America)。

川普在社群媒體上發文說:「許多人建議把新墨西哥州的名字改為…新美國州。對那個充滿潛力的州的人民來說,這個名字更體面且更美麗,哇,我喜歡!!!」

白宮轉發一張圖片,顯示這個州名的墨西哥部分被劃掉,改成「美國」。部分美國媒體報導,這個想法最初源自一場網路惡作劇。

新墨西哥州州長葛里向(Michelle Lujan Grisham)接受福斯新聞(Fox News)訪問時表示,這個名字「沒有討論的餘地,早在美國存在之前就屬於我們」。

她說,總統是想藉此分散美國人對汽油價格攀升等議題的注意力。

隨著美國與伊朗的戰事持續,川普上週曾提議將荷莫茲海峽(Strait of Hormuz)改名為「川普海峽」(Trump Strait),但數小時後,他又暗示自己對這個計畫並不是認真的。
