Trump announced entry restrictions for new foreign students on Wednesday who wanted to start studying at the elite university near Boston. The “behavior” of the university makes it an “unsuitable” goal for foreign students and researchers, explained the Trump government, which Harvard has been fighting for months.
Harvard, on the other hand, went to court. In an addition to a complaint already submitted in May, the most famous university in the USA accused the Trump government on Thursday a “concerted and escalating retaliation campaign”. Harvard should be punished to ensure that the university refuses to control their leadership, their curricula and the “ideology” of its lecturers and students.
“This is not the government’s first attempt to cut Harvard from his international students,” said the university. The Trump government had wanted to ban Harvard in May to accept foreign students. The renowned university, on the other hand, moved to court, federal judge Burroughs then tipped the ban in a preliminary decision. Now Burroughs decided again in favor of Harvard.
Trump has been acting against the elite university for months, which he calls an “anti -Semitic, left -wing extremist institution”. He justifies this with pro-Palestinian demonstrations on campus since the beginning of the Gaza War on October 7, 2023.
The US government has therefore deleted federal grants in billions of bills for Harvard – and according to its own statements is planning to cut all remaining federal funds. Harvard had refused in mid -April to abolish diversity programs as required by the government and to examine his students. Harvard President Alan Garber admitted individual anti-Semitic incidents.
