2 月 18 日（路透社）—美國總統唐納德·川普週二表示，他將禁止美聯社進入橢圓形辦公
室和空軍一號，直到該通訊社停止提及墨西哥灣。
川普於一月簽署了一項行政命令，指示內政部將水域名稱改為美國灣。美聯社引述編輯標準
稱，將繼續使用海灣的既定名稱。
過去一周，白宮禁止美聯社參加幾次記者會，稱該通訊社的決定具有分裂性且誤導公眾。
川普週二在佛羅裡達州海湖莊園首次公開評論這一問題時告訴記者：“我們將阻止他們進入
，直到他們同意這是美國灣。”
該機構保留了進入白宮建築群的權利。
美聯社在其風格手冊中表示，墨西哥灣已以這個名字命名超過 400 年。作為一家全球性通
訊社，美聯社表示將使用海灣的原名，同時承認川普選擇的新名稱。
美聯社發言人勞倫·伊斯頓說：“這是政府告訴公眾和媒體應該使用什麼言辭，如果他們不
遵守政府命令，就會進行報復。”
代表報道總統的記者的白宮記者協會對川普政府針對美聯社的行為表示抗議。
包括路透社在內的大多數新聞機構仍將該水域稱為墨西哥灣，儘管路透社的風格是在相關內
容中包含川普行政命令的背景。
路透社週六在一份聲明中表示：“路透社與美聯社和其他媒體組織站在一起，反對白宮對美
聯社實施的報告限制，因為美聯社的編輯決策是獨立的。”

Feb 18 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that he will bloc
k the Associated Press from the Oval Office and Air Force One until the news age
ncy stops referring to the Gulf of Mexico.
Trump signed an executive order in January directing the Interior Department to
change the name of the body of water to the Gulf of America. The AP, citing edit
orial standards, said it would continue to use the gulf's established name.
The White House has kept the AP out of several press pool gatherings during the
past week, calling the news agency's decision divisive and misinformation.
"We're going to keep them out until such time as they agree that it's the Gulf o
f America," Trump told reporters at Mar-a-Lago in Florida on Tuesday in his firs
t public comments on the issue.
The agency has retained access to the White House complex itself.
The AP says in its stylebook that the Gulf of Mexico has carried that name for m
ore than 400 years. As a global news agency, the AP says it will refer to the gu
lf by its original name while acknowledging the new name Trump has chosen.
"This is about the government telling the public and press what words to use and
retaliating if they do not follow government orders," said AP spokesperson Laur
en Easton.
The White House Correspondents' Association, which represents journalists coveri
ng the president, has protested the Trump administration's actions against the A
P.
Most news organizations, including Reuters, continue to call the body of water t
he Gulf of Mexico, although, where relevant, Reuters style is to include the con
text about Trump's executive order.
"Reuters stands with the Associated Press and other media organizations in objec
ting to coverage restrictions imposed by the White House on the AP, because of t
he AP's independent editorial decisions," Reuters said in a statement on Saturda
y.
