BEIJING (Bloomberg): Harvard University’s Chinese language programME will relocate to Taipei from Beijing, citing a hostile environment in China amid strained diplomatic relations between the world’s two largest economies.

The Harvard Beijing Academy will leave the Beijing Language and Culture University where it has been since 2005, Harvard Crimson student newspaper wrote. The academy will form a new partnership with National Taiwan University next summer.
