The Trump government had several universities, which it accuses of left-liberal orientation, with financial pressure to stop diversity programs. It also accuses the universities of doing too little against fighting anti -Semitism. This is based on pro-Palestinian protests at US universities.
Unlike other universities, Harvard opposes the far-reaching claims of the US government-for example on admission procedures, rules of conduct and personnel decisions. Trump’s government then stroked grants in the billions. In addition, she ordered last week that Harvard will no longer be allowed to record new students from abroad in the future.
According to US President Donald Trump, the European Union is pushing to pace in the planned negotiations with the European Union. “I have just learned that the EU called to set an appointment for a meeting as soon as possible,” he wrote on Tuesday at his short message service Truth Social. “This is positive news, and I hope that you will finally open (sic!), Like my same demand for China, the European nations for trading with the United States.”
Last Friday, Trump had threatened the EU to demolish the negotiations and tariffs of 50 percent from June 1st. At the weekend, he then said that he cleared the EU for a compromise until June 9th. The main reason for this seems to have been a phone call with EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen. She had asked for more time, but also guaranteed quick negotiations.
On Tuesday, Trump warned that he was authorized to arrange consequences “if we are unable to conclude an agreement or be treated unfairly”. Negotiations between representatives of the EU and the USA were already planned on Monday.
The new business of the US industry broke down in April. Orders for long -lasting assets such as aircraft, electronics equipment or construction machines decreased by 6.3 percent compared to the previous month, as the Ministry of Commerce announced on Tuesday. Economists surveyed by Reuters had adjusted to an even thicker minus of 7.8 percent, after an increase of revised 7.6 percent in March.
