Trump to End Visas of 3,000 Chinese Students; Fears National Security Threats Posed by China

The Trump administration is planning to cancel the visas of at least 3,000 Chinese graduate students and researchers with ties to Communist China's military schools, the Daily Beast website reports today (May 28, 2020).

The FBI and the Justice Department have been briefing American universities for years about potential national security threats posed by Chinese students, particularly those working in the sciences.

The mass visa cancellation would be the first designed to end access to the U.S. school system for a category of Chinese students.

Officials have acknowledged there is no direct evidence that the students who are about to lose their visas have done anything wrong.
