Mexico's Juan Ramón de la Fuente Announces Mobile App for Migrants to Alert Authorities Starting January 2025
Dec 27, 2024, 04:37 PM
The Mexican government is set to launch a new mobile application featuring an 'alert button' for its citizens living in the United States. This initiative, announced by Juan Ramón de la Fuente, the head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE), aims to assist migrants facing imminent detention or deportation. The alert button will enable users to send real-time notifications to their personal contacts, the nearest consulate, and the Mexican Foreign Ministry in case of a potential arrest. The application is expected to be operational starting January 2025, as part of efforts to provide support to Mexican migrants amidst increasing deportations under the current U.S. administration. This development comes amid ongoing concerns regarding the treatment of migrants in the U.S. and aims to enhance communication and support for those at risk of detention.
