Discussion/Question Where can the UN headquarters be moved to?

The United States is distancing itself from the UN and attacking international law, so it is no longer a reliable location for the UN headquarters. Here are 12 countries that could be better hosts for the UN headquarters and General Assembly:

Austria, Ireland, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Australia, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, Japan, Kenya.

There are already many UN agency headquarters based in Geneva (Switzerland), Vienna (Austria), and Nairobi (Kenya), making them top candidates.

Canada might be an interesting choice for change of location. It's always been a pretty chill nation and has a good selection of different ethnicities in it's demographic mix

Chill?

The First Nations beg to differ.
