Harvard University: Research Minister Dorothee Bär calls the situation at the US university “highly dramatic”

Green Party leader Franziska Brantner (45) also criticized the decision of the administration of US PresidentDonald Trump (78). "It's getting dark in the USA. Very dark," she wrote on Instagram. Therefore, the responsibility for free science and teaching in Germany is growing.

Europe must be “a beacon” according to Bär

Bär said she would discuss a European strategy at the meeting of EU science ministers later today in Brussels. "We have the oldest university in the world in Europe, and I believe we need to be a beacon of light, a shining example, if other continents are no longer doing so," Bär emphasized.
