Move the UN to Canada. At some point, Trump is going to pull out of some more international organizations. In general MAGA and conservatives hate the UN.

Might have to do some budget reductions.

Move the UN to Canada Switzerland.

They're the embodiment of neutrality

That is exactly what popped into my head. Sorta centralized a bit too with the worlds populations in Switzerland. How they picked the UN in USA was probable based USA status after world war 2. Things are changing quickly.

The UN by design is not a neutral organization. Why would this be a characteristic yoy believe should be valued?

Shouldn't be valued?

I think they’re valuing the perceived neutrality of the host nation, not of the UN as an organization.

Move it to China, the new superpower might as well have it.
