New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani on Thursday said while he has many disagreements with President Donald Trump, he will work with the American leader on any agenda that benefits New Yorkers. Mamdani will meet Trump in the White House on Friday, the first meeting between the two and also since his victory in the New York City Mayoral election on November 4.

`I have many disagreements with the President, and I believe that we should be relentless and pursue all avenues and all meetings that can make our city affordable for every single New Yorker,` Mamdani told reporters here. `I intend to make it clear to President Trump that I will work with him on any agenda that benefits New Yorkers. If an agenda hurts New Yorkers, I will also be the first to say so,` he added.
