White House accused Harvard of ‘coordination’ with China
Washington: Link to China of Harvard University, has long become a property for school, an obligation because the level of Trump administration alleges that its complex is stricken by the Beijing-assimilated effect operation.Concerns about the influence of the Chinese government in Harvard are not new. Some US lawmakers, many of them, have expressed concern that China is manipulating Harvard to gain access to advanced technologies.“For a very long time, Harvard allowed the Chinese Communist Party to exploit the Chinese Communist Party,” a White House official told Reuters on Friday. Harvard did not immediately respond to the requests for comments. Harvard’s links to China, including research participation and China-centric educational centers, are long. The Chinese Embassy in Washington said: “Educational exchange and cooperation between China and the US are mutually beneficial and should not be tarnished.”The complexity and overlapping nature of school relations with China has attracted criticism. For example, Harvard provided public health related training to Shinjiang Production and Construction Corps (XPCC) officials after 2020. That year, the US imposed a ban on Chinese paramilitary organization for its role in alleged human rights violations against Uyghs and other Muslim ethnic groups in Xinjiang.In another episode, US Business Intelligence firm Strategy Risk said Ronnie Chan, who provided a $ 350 million donation facility to Harvard in 2014, is a member of the China-United States Exchange Foundation. The organization is classified as a foreign principal under the American law, requiring American lobists to reveal that work. (This is a Reuters Story)
