A federal judge temporarily blocked the vine lap imposed by the Trump administration in the presence of foreign students on the Harvard campus.
The judge accepted the motion presented today by the University after the decision of homeland security.
Donald Trump launched the lunge on Harvard by revoking the possibility of enrolling international students to the University. The narrow is a new hard blow to the university, which the president has already deprived of billions of dollars of funding, and opens the way to a new legal battle: the university has in fact sued the administration by stating that the decision of the White House violates the first amendment.
By announcing the revocation of the certification of the program for foreign students and visitors, the National Security Department clarifies that foreign students currently enrolled in Harvard must move or will lose their legal status. “Harvard’s leadership has created an unhealthy university environment allowing anti-American and pro-terrorist agitators to harass and physically attacking individuals, including many Jewish students, and to hinder in other ways its venerable learning environment”, explained the department.
The spokesman for the White House, Abigail Jackson, defined “merit” the cause presented today by Harvard. The university, said the spokesman, “should take his time and resources to create a safe university environment, instead of intenting merit causes”.
The Ministry led by Kristi Noem had given Harvard until the end of April to report the members who would have performed “illegal and violent actions. And now, almost a month from the expiry of the deadline, Noem actually puts a noose around the neck at the university in the name of the crusade against anti -Semitism and against policies inspired by diversity, equity and inclusion.” This administration is believing to have been responsible for having fomented violence, anti -Semitism and for coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus. It is a privilege, not a right, for universities to enroll foreign students and benefit from their higher university fees, thus helping to increase their multimiliarding funds “, has criticized Noem. It is probable, reports the New York Times, that Harvard responds with a new cause to the President’s tightness after the one started last month against the government attempt to impose changes to his university and university assumption.
The secretary for American internal security, Kristi Noem, warned that the stop decided by Donald Trump to the registrations of foreign students in Harvard could broaden to other colleges in the USA. “It’s a warning to all universities,” he said in an interview with Fox News.
In Harvard there are about 6,800 foreign students this year, about 27% of the total, a figure on the increase compared to 19.7% in 2010. Some of them are allowed with subsidies and others pay the entire straight line of 83 thousand dollars.
From Italy they applied in 500 but only three managed to enter: all with scholarships, according to data from UNI Student Advisors, the organization that helped them to register.
The White House: “The cause of Harvard is without merit”
The spokesman for the White House, Abigail Jackson, defined “devoid of merit” the cause presented today by Harvard to block the revocation of the admission of foreign students.
“If only at Harvard he imported equally to put an end to the scourge of anti-American agitators, anti-Semites and pro -terrists present on their campus, he would not be in this situation,” said Jackson according to which “Harvard should take his time and resources to create a safe university environment, instead of intenting merit causes”.

Germany: “Trump’s decision on Harvard is disastrous, the revochi”
The decision of the United States government not to accept more foreign students at Harvard “sadly sadly”, “it is not a positive signal or for the younger generations nor for the free world. And I sincerely hope that the United States government cancels this decision because it is really disastrous”. The German minister for research, technology and space, Dorothee Bar, in Brussels for the competitiveness council dedicated to research and space said it.
“Like the dispute on the duties, no one is needed, there are losers on both sides – added Bar – that’s why it was really a decision, really wrong and I hope so much that it is changed”.
The minister then said he was “very worried” for what is happening in the United States right now, “if you look at the news, and also the professors we have had in Germany these days, coming from the USA, have told stories that are anything but pleasant”.
Bernini: “The universities are spaces of freedom, we are open in the world”
“As far as we are concerned, universities have always been and will be spaces of freedom and cosmopolitanism places where confrontation and critical spirit feed. In essence it is where it is built and feeds that democratic culture that has always been a distinctive trait of the West”. So the Minister of the Anna Maria Bernini University on the Harvard affair at the Huffington Post in a break of the European Council on Research.
“This government has strengthened the autonomy of Italian universities, changing the rules on the recruitment of teachers, protected the right to dissent, with the only discrimination of violence, never prohibiting events even in moments of very strong tension and has increased the financing of up to 9.4 billion euros, a level never reached before. Italian universities are open to the world”.
