SHAFAQNA— Following months of sharp exchanges, USA’s President Trump and New York City’s incoming Mayor, Zohran Mamdani met at the White House on Friday (21 Nov 2025) in a surprisingly cordial atmosphere. They smiled, exchanged warm remarks, and committed to working together on key issues such as public safety and housing affordability in the country’s largest city.
Despite being political opposites Trump, a Republican billionaire and Mamdani a young democratic socialist, the pair have previously sparred over topics ranging from immigration to economic strategy. Yet their first face-to-face meeting showed they had managed to establish a unexpectedly positive connection.
