Israel's Ambassador Says NYC’s Mamdani Is ‘Sowing Chaos’ Ahead of Netanyahu’s UN Appearance
Danon said Mamdani’s arrest push is political as Netanyahu plans a 24-hour U.N. visit and speech amid Gaza war tensions.
- On Tuesday, Ambassador Danny Danon criticized Mayor Zohran Mamdani for urging protests against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's upcoming U.N. visit, accusing the mayor of "doing politics."
- Mamdani justified his protest calls by citing a November 2024 International Criminal Court warrant accusing Netanyahu of crimes against humanity, though New York City lacks authority to enforce it.
- Danon warned that demonstrations could "create more chaos" during high-level U.N. meetings Sept. 22-28, while Netanyahu plans a 24-hour trip arriving late Sept. 23 to address the General Assembly.
- Netanyahu remains committed to speaking despite anticipated disruptions, with Danon noting the address will reach 193 U.N. member nations during Jewish holidays and an election campaign.
- Last year, delegates staged a mass walkout during Netanyahu's speech, and Danon expects "something like another show" this year as diplomatic friction persists between municipal leadership and Israeli officials.
