It has been made known that the UK-Russian media owner Sir Len Blavatnik has stopped donations to Harvard after its president Claudine Gay refused to outlaw calls for genocide of the Jews.

Gay has been reaffirmed in her post by Harvard’s board of governors.

Blavatnik and his family foundation have given more than $270 million to Harvard in recent years, most of it to the medical school. Blavatnik is the owner of the Warner record label.
