A high-ranking source within the Trump administration stated on Tuesday, in the latest development in the dispute between the White House and Harvard.

According to the source, the government will "send a letter to all federal authorities today, asking the authorities to find all contracts with Harvard - and if they can be terminated or carried on".

The Trump government has already terminated contracts worth more than 2.6 billion dollars in federal research grants since Harvard refused to change its policy on several issues despite demands from the White House.

The government indirectly accuses Harvard, located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, of, among other things, anti-Semitism and demands that the university cease investments in diversity, justice, and inclusion programs, so-called DEI programs.

The government has previously withdrawn tax relief for the university and attempted to stop its ability to admit international students.<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>
