The United States government has initiated a review of the 53 Mexican consulates operating within the U.S., a move that could lead to the closure of some of these diplomatic offices.
The review, which places the entire consular network under scrutiny, was first revealed by CBS and subsequently reported by several news organizations, including Reforma, El Financiero and El Universal.

Under the administration of Donald Trump, the U.S. Government is analyzing the operations of the 53 consulates to determine if certain offices should be closed. This action is described as an increase in pressure from Washington toward the Mexican diplomatic network.

Reports indicate that the decision to conduct this review comes amid ongoing bilateral tensions between the United States and Mexico.
