Published 9 months, 1 week ago
Description
A federal judge has blocked a Trump administration decision to revoke Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students. The temporary restraining order stops the government from pulling Harvard’s certification in the Student and Exchange Visitor Program, which allows the school to host international students with visas to study in the U.S.
President Donald Trump has threatened to impose a 25 percent tariff on Apple for any iPhones sold, but not manufactured, in the United States. Trump also said he would recommend a 50 percent tariff on the European Union to begin on June 1, which would result in stiff levies on luxury items, pharmaceuticals, and other goods produced by European manufacturers.
