The New York Times Chinese Edition reported today (May 29th): "Although Rubio's written statement did not define the 'critical fields,' this term is likely to refer to research in the field of physical sciences. It is unclear how quickly the authorities will cancel the visas of affected Chinese students and revoke their status in the United States. The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has taken active measures to detain some students whose visas or residency statuses were canceled by Rubio."
[Wit] Comment on this: Every year, hundreds of thousands of Chinese students go to the United States for study, contributing billions of dollars to the American education industry. In the next three to four years during Trump's administration, Chinese students may choose countries like the UK, Canada, and Australia as their study destinations more often. Today, China has made it very clear: the US unreasonably canceled the visas of Chinese students under the pretext of ideology and national security, which seriously infringes on the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese students and interferes with normal personnel exchanges and cultural exchanges between the two countries. China firmly opposes this. This politically motivated and discriminatory move by the US has completely exposed the lie of America's so-called 'freedom and openness,' and will only further damage America's own international image and national credibility.
