华盛顿，8月31日（路透社）——美国内政部长道格·伯根姆周一表示，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普已就将“安大略湖”更名为“美国湖”一事与苹果公司接洽，该公司可能很快就会修改其地图。
特朗普于周四宣布，将这座五大湖中面积最小的湖泊更名，此举是美加升级贸易争端的一部分，目前两国已对价值数十亿美元的商品相互加征关税。

“总统直接联系了苹果公司，所以我相信我们很快就会看到它更名为‘美国湖’，”伯根姆在接受福克斯商业频道《玛丽亚早间秀》节目采访时说道。
记者目前无法立即联系到苹果公司置评。
总统关于更名的行政命令涉及美国地理名称信息系统（GNIS），该系统为美国官方地图制定标准。该命令不会对加拿大的命名惯例或世界其他地区对该湖泊的称呼产生任何影响。
谷歌的一份声明显示，谷歌地图已将美国用户端的该湖泊名称更改为“美国湖”。

WASHINGTON, Aug 31 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump has spoken to Apple about changing the name of “Lake Ontario” to “Lake America” and the company may soon alter its maps, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said on Monday.
Trump announced on Thursday that he was changing the name of the smallest of the five Great Lakes, part of an escalating trade feud with Canada that has prompted the two countries to impose reciprocal tariffs on billions of dollars in goods.

“The president reached out to Apple directly, so I’m sure that we may be seeing that change coming up soon to Lake America,” Burgum said in an interview on Fox Business’ “Mornings with Maria” program.
Apple could not be immediately reached for comment.
The president’s executive order on the name change affects the U.S. Geographic Names Information System (GNIS), which sets the standards for official U.S. maps. It does not have any impact on Canadian naming conventions or how the rest of the world refers to the lake.
Google Maps has already changed the lake’s name to “Lake America” for U.S. users, according to a Google statement.
