Zohran Mamdani Calls Trump to Defend Maduro as Venezuelan Refugees Celebrate the Fall of the Socialist Dictator in New York and Around the World

On January 3, 2026, following the U.S. military operation that captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani publicly stated that he personally called President Donald Trump to express his strong opposition to the action.

Mamdani described the capture as an “act of war” and a violation of international law. He emphasized that his opposition was rooted in rejecting regime change efforts and upholding legal standards consistently.

Multiple reputable news outlets reported this directly, quoting Mamdani from press conferences and statements:

• Fox News: Reported Mamdani said he called Trump to “register [his] opposition” to the capture.
• The New York Times: Noted Mamdani called Trump “to personally object” to the strikes and capture.
• New York Daily News: Quoted him saying he “made it clear” his objection to forcibly removing Maduro.
• The Hindu and TRT World: Confirmed he spoke with Trump “directly” to voice opposition to the “pursuit of regime change.”
• CBS New York and others: Echoed that he registered opposition based on legal and anti-regime-change grounds.

These reports are consistent across sources with varying political leanings, and Mamdani himself referenced the call in public remarks and on X (formerly Twitter).

Video: Zohran Mamdani is Sworn in as Mayor of the City of New York.

Just after midnight on January 1st, Zohran Kwame Mamdani will be officially sworn in as the 112th Mayor of the City of New York, by New York State Attorney General Letitia James.

January 1, 2026, just after midnight, Zohran Mamdani was officially sworn in as the 112th Mayor of New York City in a private ceremony held in the historic, decommissioned Old City Hall subway station. The event symbolized the importance of public transit to the city’s vitality.

• New York State Attorney General Letitia James administered the oath of office. Mamdani repeated the oath, pledging to support the U.S. Constitution, New York State Constitution, and New York City Charter, and to faithfully discharge the duties of the mayor’s office.
• Following the oath, Mamdani paid the traditional $9 fee to the city clerk, signed the official book, and the swearing-in was declared official amid congratulations and applause.

In brief remarks, Mayor Mamdani expressed gratitude to attendees, extended Happy New Year wishes to all New Yorkers, and called it “the honor and privilege of a lifetime.”

As his first act as mayor, Mamdani announced the appointment of Mike Flynn as the new Commissioner of the New York City Department of Transportation (DOT). He praised Flynn’s experience, ambition, and vision for making the city’s streets and public transit “the envy of the world.”

Flynn accepted the role, reflecting on his childhood fascination with NYC’s infrastructure and excitement to work with DOT’s talented staff to deliver ambitious results for New Yorkers.

The ceremony concluded with applause and Mamdani looking forward to beginning his term the next day. This midnight event preceded a larger public inauguration later on January 1, 2026.
