Harvard University's longstanding ties with China, once considered an asset to the institution, have become a political liability amid the Trump administration's accusations that the campus is infiltrated by Beijing-backed influence operations. The U.S. government has intensified scrutiny of Chinese influence in American universities, leading to concerns about espionage and calls for renewed measures such as the revival of the "China Initiative," a program initially launched during the first Trump administration to counter Chinese intelligence activities. This shift has prompted several universities to halt joint research projects with China.
Critics argue that parts of Harvard have been influenced by activists promoting distorted historical narratives. The controversy reflects broader tensions between the U.S. and China, with implications for academic collaboration and national security.
