International News: US President Donald Trump has once again made serious allegations against Harvard University. Describing the university as 'too much antisemitic' (anti-Jew), he has threatened that he can withdraw $3 billion in federal grants from Harvard and give it to trade schools across the country.

Through his social platform, 'Truth Social,' Trump gave a sharp message: "What a good investment it will be for America! And how much does it need!" He said that Harvard is becoming a big problem for the country, and now the time has come to take strict action on this.

Harvard accused of hiding international students' information

Donald Trump also alleged that Harvard University has so far not fulfilled the demand for the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS), which has been sought with the details, video, and audio footage of international students of the last five years.

He alleged that the university is not deliberately giving these documents, as they may include information about protests on the campus.

'Fundamental students': Trump's sharp attack

President wrote in another post, "We are still waiting for Harvard's foreign student list to find out how many militant and unruly students should not return to our country despite spending billions of dollars. Harvard is deliberately delayed in handing over the document, and it is possible that a concrete reason behind it is hidden.

Legal controversy on Federal Funding

Earlier, Harvard filed a case against the Earlier, Harvard University challenged the Trump administration's decision in court, ordering it to withdraw its $3 billion federal grant. A Boston federal court judge, Elison Baroz, who was appointed by former President Barack Obama, banned the Trump administration policy.

Taking a dig at this, Trump said, "If Harvard is currently saving, then just the judge he has chosen for himself - but there is no need to panic; finally, the government will win!"

Refusal to accept political demands: Harvard arguments

Harvard University said in its defense that the Trump administration's action was actually an attempt to put political pressure on the university so that it would change its position over the alleged Jewish atmosphere on the campus. The university says that it turned down those demands while focusing on the principles of freedom of expression and autonomy of education.

The dispute between Donald Trump and Harvard University raises a big question on American politics, the education system, and freedom of ideas in society. While Trump considers it a step taken in the national interest, Harvard is calling it an attack on his rights. In the coming days, this confrontation may become faster.
