A federal judge in the United States has frozen President Donald Trump's decision to suspend registration or admission of foreign students to Harvard University, which the administration claimed was 'endangering national security' and 'refusing to cooperate with federal authorities.' The judge accepted Harvard's appeal, which argued that the president's executive order violated a previous injunction and bypassed due process. According to the university, the White House directive 'was not taken to protect U.S. interests, but to pursue governmental revenge against Harvard.'
