Mexico’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE) gave itself a pat on the back at the start of the year, highlighting the advances made in protecting the rights of Mexican citizens abroad.
In addition to publishing a “Guide to Consular Protection” for the first time, the SRE set up a free hotline to provide information about the community resources available throughout the United States. From July 4 to December 16, the call center received about 24,000 calls, the agency reported.
The SRE’s network of 51 consulates in the United States assisted with 178,214 cases of protection in 2013, including more than 14,000 cases of unaccompanied children and teens in the first eight months of the year.
