China Condemns U.S. Ban on Harvard’s International Students 🌍📚

China has sharply criticized a controversial U.S. decision to revoke Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students, calling it a politically charged move that threatens global education cooperation. 🚨

What Happened?

The U.S. government stripped Harvard of its Student and Exchange Visitor Program (SEVIS) certification this week, effectively barring new international students from attending. Current foreign students must now transfer to other schools or risk losing their legal status. Critics say the move could expand to other universities.

Why It Matters

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning called the decision a 'blow to mutual trust' during a press briefing Friday. 'Educational exchanges between China and the U.S. benefit both sides,' she said, vowing to protect Chinese students’ rights. 📢

The move comes amid rising U.S.-China tensions, with some analysts calling it a 'political chess move' that could tarnish America’s reputation as a top study destination. Over 300,000 Chinese students currently study in the U.S. 🎓

What’s Next?

While the Biden administration has yet to comment, student advocacy groups are preparing legal challenges. For now, Harvard’s global community faces uncertainty—and the world is watching. 👀
