London Mayor Sadiq Khan was among the first British politicians on Wednesday to congratulate New York Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, calling his historic victory a triumph of “hope over fear."

Taking to social media, Khan drew parallels between the choice faced by New Yorkers and his own leadership in London, where he has championed diversity and inclusion.

“New Yorkers faced a clear choice – between hope and fear – and just like we’ve seen in London – hope won," Khan wrote, adding, “Huge congratulations to Zohran Mamdani on his historic campaign."
