"I think what we're doing is the right thing to do, the president said. It's good to get along with countries, not bad, especially, you know, nuclear-powered countries. I think it's good to get along with countries. The [Ukraine-Russia war] would have never started if I were president, all those kids would have been alive right now. A moment earlier, Trump said I don't want anything in return for allowing the 600,00 students to come to the U.S."
"I think that it's very insulting to a country. I have a very good relationship with President Xi, he responded. I think it's very insulting to a country when you say you're not going to take your students, and they have probably 300,000 600 is over two years but they have, let's say 300-350,000 students. It's also good for our system, when you take them out and you know who's going to be affected, the lesser colleges, the top college colleges aren't going to be, it's the lesser colleges that are."
A proposal would admit 600,000 Chinese students to U.S. universities, spread over a two-year period. The proposal is framed as fostering better relations with other countries, including nuclear-armed powers, and as beneficial to the U.S. higher education system. Officials emphasize no reciprocal political or trade concessions are expected in exchange. The influx is expected to affect primarily lesser-known colleges rather than top institutions. Critics from pro-MAGA groups and commentators have voiced opposition. The plan was reiterated across multiple public settings despite vocal criticism, and references were made to broader geopolitical outcomes such as the Ukraine-Russia war.
