Mexico enhances support for migrants in the US with new app and services

Mexico has announced new efforts to protect the human rights of its migrants in the U.S., including a mobile app to alert families and consulates if a migrant is detained. This app is set to launch in January. Despite claims on social media, Mexico has not confirmed plans to send lawyers to the U.S. to assist migrants. The government is enhancing its consular services and has established a 24-hour call center for migrant inquiries. The announcement comes as immigration remains a contentious issue in the U.S., with President-elect Donald Trump prioritizing mass deportations when he takes office on January 20.
