"It’s a war that should be opposed on every single ground, not just procedural, but also moral, but also political," said New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

Axar.az reports, in an interview with political commentator Tyler Cohen, Mamdani said war diverts resources from areas that could improve people’s lives.

"It is a war that should be opposed on the grounds of the fact that it is being financed by the very money that could make it easier to keep calling this city, this country, home, and yet, there is a blindness to that fact,” Mamdani stated.

At the beginning of the conflict against Iran, Mamdani called U.S. and Israeli strikes “a catastrophic escalation in an illegal war of aggression.”
