The United Arab Emirates is restricting students from enrolling at British universities over fears that campuses are being radicalised by Islamist groups.
Officials with knowledge of the situation told The Times that federal funding was being limited for citizens who hope to study in the UK, citing concerns about the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood among other issues.
The group is proscribed as a terrorist organisation by the UAE, which has long campaigned for European nations including Britain to do the same.
