The University of Amsterdam has faced criticism for ending its bilateral relations with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem following violent anti-Israel protests on campus. Dutch politicians have accused the university of giving in to the demands of the protesters, while also highlighting the university's continued collaboration with Chinese universities despite China's human rights record. The decision to cut ties with Hebrew University has been called a dangerous precedent and has raised concerns about the treatment of Jewish and Israeli students on Dutch campuses. It remains unclear what will happen with the university's cooperation with other Israeli universities.
