Mexico Is in Emergency Trump-Protection Mode


Trump's surprise victory over Democrat Hillary Clinton has shaken Mexico, pushing the beleaguered peso to record lows and forcing the government into crisis mode as it seeks to protect bilateral trade.

[...]

Authorities in Mexico have unveiled new measures to provide support to Mexican citizens living in the United States, including phone hotlines, following Donald Trump's win in last week's US presidential election.

[...]

Acting to help Mexicans avoid "abuses and fraud" in the US, Mexico's foreign ministry said on Wednesday it will expand the availability of mobile consulate services to reach more migrants in their communities.

It will also establish a 24-hour telephone line for questions about immigration, and provide more appointments for migrants to get passports, birth certificates and consular identification cards.

Good luck with that.
The news comes as Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador agreed to join forces and seek support from Mexico to forge a joint strategy in response to Trump.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
