politics

The Trump administration has halted new student visa interviews as it expands social media screenings [2][6]. This move is reported to address national security concerns, but critics argue it targets political activists, especially those involved in pro-Palestinian protests [0][3]. The freeze on student visas, affecting categories F, M, and J, is raising issues about free speech and potential economic setbacks for U.S. universities [9][4]. China has called for the protection of international student rights, highlighting international objections [7]. The policy change comes amid legal tussles with institutions like Harvard [1].
