Trump called Mamdani's victory in the New York mayoral election a loss of US sovereignty

The victory of the representative of the Democratic Party, Zohran Mamdani, in the New York mayoral election is the loss of a part of the United States. This was announced on November 5 by the American leader Donald Trump.

"We lost a bit of sovereignty last night in New York, but we'll figure it out," he said during a speech at the American Business Forum.

Zohran Mamdani will become the first Muslim in history to lead the largest American city.

Earlier, on November 3, Trump announced that he could limit federal funding for New York if the Democratic candidate Mamdani wins the mayoral election. According to him, if Mamdani wins, he will not allocate federal funds to the city, except for the most necessary minimum, because he believes that under the leadership of a communist politician, New York "will not be able to succeed or survive."
