Listen to this note:

 

The Government of Mexico, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (SRE), reported that a cell phone application will be implemented that will have an "alert bot" so that those immigrants who are facing imminent arrest can be supported by the nearest consulate.

During the morning conference of the president of M ico, Claudia Sheinbaum, the Mexican Foreign Minister, Juan Ram de la Fuente, who specified that this "alert bot" would send a message in real time to the predetermined personal contacts, the nearest consulate and the SRE.

?Soon you will also have the possibility of being active, through a very simple procedure, an ?alert bot?, which has already been put into practice, on a small scale in some places and seems to be working very well, where, in the case that you find yourself facing an imminent arrest, you press an alert bot, this sends a signal to the nearest consulate and to the relatives that you previously preloaded in that application and of course to the chancellor in Mexico, so that this will allow us to be alert at the moment in which someone perceives the imminent risk that they could be subject to some arrest?, De la Fuente specified.

The Alert Bot was created in conjunction with the Digital Transformation Agency and will be implemented throughout the United States on January 6, 2025.

The idea is that it is a very simple application, because we want it primarily for truly emergency cases, whenever you need it.
