Harvard-Trump battle takes new turn, Court halts US President's ban on foreign students

Harvard vs Trump: US President Donald Trump's latest clampdown to restrict foreign student enrolment at Harvard received a fresh blow after a court imposed a temporary stay on Thursday. The court halted Donald Trump's efforts to bar new international students from attending one of the world's most prestigious universities.

This comes a day after the White House issued a proclamation seeking to restrict new international students at Harvard from entering the country. US District Judge Allison Burroughs on June 5 ordered that the government cannot enforce Trump's proclamation, AFP reported.
