On April 18, local time, the Trump administration stated that,Harvard University has been asked to provide records of foreign funding and some foreign relationships over the past decade. The U.S. Department of Education sent a letter to the president of Harvard University stating that the information disclosed by Harvard University between 2014 and 2019 was "incomplete and inaccurate." Some analysts say this is the latest escalation by the US government against Harvard University.

Recently, the U.S. federal government threatened to freeze federal funds and required many universities to "rectify their problems." Harvard University, a famous private university in the United States, chose to be tough.
Harvard University in the United States rejected the Trump administration’s request on the 14th to make substantial changes in its management structure, recruitment and admissions policies. The U.S. government immediately announced a freeze on the school’s federal funding totaling approximately $2.26 billion. On the 15th, Trump threatened again to revoke Harvard University’s tax-exempt status and demanded an apology from the school.
