Trump Invites Controversial New York Mayor-elect Mamdani to White House
————————————–
U.S. President Donald Trump announced that he will host Zehran Mamdani, the newly elected and controversial mayor of New York City, in the Oval Office on Friday. The meeting could mark a new chapter in the ongoing political tensions between the two prominent New York figures.

According to Shia Waves Agency, citing BBC, the visit comes after months of verbal attacks by Trump against Mamdani, in which he accused the mayor-elect of communism and extremism.

Mamdani, however, stated that he is willing to meet with any U.S. official, provided that the discussion leads to tangible improvements for the 8.5 million residents of New York City who are under pressure from ongoing social and economic challenges.
