President Donald Trump and Zohran Mamdani are set to meet in person on Friday, days after Mamdani, the New York mayor-elect, reached out to the White House to arrange a sit-down.

Axar.az informs, citing NBC news, Trump wrote Wednesday night on Truth Social post that Mamdani had asked for a meeting and that they "agreed that this meeting will take place at the Oval Office" this Friday. Trump said "further details" were forthcoming.

A spokesperson for Mamdani confirmed the plans.

“As is customary for an incoming mayoral administration, the Mayor-elect plans to meet with the President in Washington to discuss public safety, economic security and the affordability agenda that over one million New Yorkers voted for just two weeks ago,” spokesperson Dora Pekec said in a statement Wednesday night.

Mamdani told reporters Monday that his team had contacted the White House to propose a meeting as part of a pledge to voters to “address the affordability crisis that is pushing so many of them out of the city” and that Trump's economic policies were contributing to high costs of living in New York.
