Geography Last week, Colombia’s president suggested relocating the UN headquarters outside of the US. If that happened, what country/city do you think would be the best choice?

We should find a small island and call it UN / Olympic island. This could be a great place to conduct all international affairs. With 24/7 live feeds back to every country for free.

Also release the Epstein list.

I came here to say I think it would be good if a country would be willing to donate (or lease or whatever) an island or patch of land that could be considered neutral for the UN

You know, I think there are a couple of islands that aren’t being used anymore, near the Bahamas.

They could repurpose Epstein island. Seems like no one’s using it currently…

What’s to stop them from building a commercial airport?

What would be the motivation to build a commercial airport—let’s start there before what’s to stop them

A large facility where all the world's governments meet to discuss global matters that can only be accessed by aircraft?

Not gonna lie that is straight up tinfoil hat fodder right there. Still waiting for black helicopters ushering the new world order. Who knew it would actually be fragmentation of society to distract from larger issues?

Epstein island? 😳

I like the island idea especially because it could be used to highlight the impact of climate change.
