An American court has issued an order that the Trump administration is blocking by withdrawing the ability of Harvard University to register international students.
The ruling is the newest turn in the printing campaign of the US President against Harvard, including him who ordered the withdrawal of billions of US dollars in federal financing.
The temporary order when lawyers for the federal government withdrew from plans to immediately engage the assets of the Ivy League University to engage international students for at least a month.
Instead, the administration gives the college for 30 days to dispute its plans through a longer administrative process.

The US Department of the Interior Security sent Harvard a notification of intention on Wednesday to withdraw the certification of the school under a federal program to register non-American students.
With reference to the potential for Harvard and her students to harm if the administration returned to her earlier plans, the American district judge Allison Burroughs said during that hearing that she was planning to give a broad provisional order that the status quo retain while the newly announced administrative process is taking place.
Harvard’s lawyers have argued that the withdrawal has violated its freedom of expression and has violated the correct procedural rights under the American Constitution.
Moreover, Harvard argued that the withdrawal could not meet the regulations of the Department of Homeland Security.
The regulations had to provide for at least 30 days to challenge the allegations of the agency and give Harvard the opportunity to appeal to an administrative appeal.
Harvard said that losing the right to register international students would hit about a quarter of the student body and destroyed the school.
It has accused Trump administration of alleged bias against conservatives, promoting anti -Semitism on campus and coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party.
The Homeland Security department said the Harvard sent the notification after school officials indicated an intention to meet the requirements of the Federal Student and Exchange Visitor, with which Harvard can register non-American students.
“We continue to reject the repeated pattern of Harvard to jeopardize his students and spread the American hatred – it must change his ways to be eligible to receive generous benefits of the American people,” said the secretary of domestic security Kristi calls a statement in a statement.
The university, the oldest and richest in the country, registered nearly 6,800 international students in the current school year, about 27 percent of the total registration.
The relocation of the department would prevent Harvard from registering new international students and requiring existing that they switch to other schools or lose their legal status.
