US President Donald Trump said the United States will allow 600,000 Chinese students to study in American colleges. He said without these students, US colleges would struggle. This number is more than double the current 270,000 Chinese students in the US. Trump made this announcement on 25 Aug 2025 during talks with South Korean President Lee Jae Myung in Washington. He also said he wants better relations with China and plans to visit soon. Some conservative leaders criticized this move, saying it conflicts with previous visa restrictions. Trump defended the decision, saying it is important for US education and trade talks with China. He also warned China about high tariffs on rare earth materials during the same meeting.
