US President Donald Trump has announced a visa ban for foreign students who are about to begin their studies at Harvard University. This is the latest aggressive move by Trump to pressure one of the world's best universities and leaves the fate of hundreds of foreign students in limbo. "I have determined that it is necessary to restrict the entry of foreign nationals who seek to enter the United States solely or primarily to pursue a program of study at Harvard University or a program of student exchange operated by Harvard University," Trump said in a statement on Wednesday (4/6) evening local time. In his statement, Trump said the decision is effective immediately and "will apply to any foreign national who enters or attempts to enter the United States to begin their studies at Harvard University" through the Student and Exchange Visitor Program. He also added that international students who are currently studying at Harvard on various types of visas will face further review and risk having their visas revoked.[1]

The move, Trump said, was necessary to protect "national security". "In my judgment, it is a grave national security risk for an academic institution to refuse to provide adequate information when requested, especially regarding alleged misconduct or crimes committed by its foreign students," Trump said. He also accused "Harvard and its affiliated organizations on campus of continuing to deny equal opportunity to hard-working Americans." "It is not in the interests of the United States for Harvard to further its discrimination against any race, national origin, ancestry, or religion that it does not like by limiting the opportunities available to American students because of the large number of foreign students," Trump's statement read. The ban appears to apply only to Harvard University. However, the Trump administration is still targeting blatant restrictions on foreign students from studying in the US. Currently, the US has restricted or even stopped accepting foreign student visas.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
