ReutersThe US President Donald Trump ordered the US Embassy to stop the reservation for a student visa, preparing to expand the social media of such applicants.
According to the official memo, social media betting will be strengthened for students and foreign exchange visas.
There is a wide range of trump crackdowns on some of the most elite universities in the United States. He sees these institutions too left-on-accusation that they cannot fight anti-Semitism when the Palestinian protests are deployed on campus.
In response to this measure, China urged the United States to protect international students.
“We urged the United States to seriously protect the legitimate rights and interests of international students, including Chinese students,,” he said. Hundreds of thousands of Chinese students attend American universities.
The university itself will be unpleasant. Many of them depend on foreign students on significant chunks of funds. The scholars often pay higher tuition fees.
Foreign students who want to study in the United States usually need to book an interview at the US Embassy in the country before approval.
Tammy Bruce State Department spokesman told reporters on Tuesday:
- Are you a student influenced by this story? Please let me know here
The BBC’s US Partner CBS News (CBS NEWS) instructed the US Embassy to remove the promise that was not filled in the calendar for students looking for a visa, but those who had already had an appointment could continue.
Marco Rubio, Secretary of State Marco, said that the suspension of suspension would last until the additional guidelines were issued.
Memo also said that the State Department is preparing for the “expansion of necessary social media screening and examination” that can be applied to all student visas.
It did not spell what the judging would find.
According to a report by the Guardian in March, the Trump administration has already strengthened the review of student social media.
In April, the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) said, “It will be considered the basis for rejecting the anti -Semitism activity on social media and the physical harassment of the Jewish individuals.
As part of a wider crackdown, Trump’s team raised hundreds of millions of dollars to college, expelled students, and withdrew thousands of visas for others. Many of these actions were blocked by the court.
The White House accused some of the US universities that they allowed the professional Palestinian movement on campus by anti -Semitism.
The university accused the Trump administration that he tried to infringe on freedom of speech. Critics say that the new policy of social media screening indicates additional violations of rights due to the first amendment of the US Constitution.
Trump opposes that he is trying to defend his free media throughout his president’s position.
Harvard University was the focus of the president’s IRE. He frozen $ 26.5 billion (£ 1.96 billion) as a federal subsidy and tried to deploy other federal funds, which are considering $ 100 million of other federal funds.
The president of the university said that the academic community was doing research that was considered “priority” by the government, so it would “hurt” as well as Harvard.
Last week, Trump also canceled Harvard’s ability to register international students or host a foreign researcher. The federal judge blocked the policy.
If this action is ultimately allowed, the bill can cause a fatal blow to the university. The students protested on Tuesday at the university campus near Boston.
