Top Mamdani official planned meeting with Iran’s UN ambassador

Her Persian excursion is no more.
Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s international affairs commissioner boneheadedly made plans to meet with Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations, sources confirmed to The Post.
The scheduled July 7 meeting – first reported by City Journal – between Commissioner Ana María Archila and Amir-Saeid Iravani, Iran’s permanent representative to the UN, ultimately never happened, sources said.

US State Department officials intervened after they learned about Archila’s plans to meet an Iran government while America’s conflict with the Gulf nation is still ongoing, according to sources.

“She scheduled it without checking in with anybody,” one source said of the Tuesday meeting.
President Trump on Wednesday declared the temporary cease-fire “over” as the two nations traded renewed strikes following Iranian attacks on the Strait of Hormuz.
Mamdani didn’t know about the meeting, the report stated. But the canceled contretemps is likely to having critics of the Israel-bashing Mamdani clucking, “Aya-told-you-so.”
“I mean, read the room people,” another source said. “I’m sure the president is thrilled.”
