US State Department Reviews All 53 Mexican Consulates in the United States
Washington, D.C. — The U.S. State Department is reviewing all 53 Mexican consulates in the United States and could order the closure of some diplomatic missions, according to CBS News.
The review comes amid heightened tensions between the two countries over security and immigration issues. The report did not specify which consulates might be targeted or the exact reasons behind the review.
Mexican officials have not yet publicly commented on the development. The consulates provide critical services to millions of Mexican nationals living in the U.S., including passport renewals, consular identification cards, and legal assistance.
