The United Nations exists to serve humanity. All of humanity. Not one country. Not one administration. Not one man.

Yet right now, the most powerful multilateral institution in the world sits on American soil — and that has become a problem.

The current US administration has made its contempt for international cooperation clear. It has undermined multilateral agreements, threatened to withdraw funding from UN bodies, and increasingly treated global institutions as bargaining chips in its own political agenda.

Hosting the United Nations is a privilege — one that comes with the responsibility to uphold the values of neutrality, peace, and cooperation that the institution was built upon. That responsibility is no longer being met.

The UN was placed in New York in 1951 because the United States embodied those values. It no longer does.

When the host nation of the world's foremost peace institution becomes a destabilizing force on the world stage, the integrity of that institution is compromised. Every session held in New York, every diplomat who must navigate US visa restrictions, every decision made under the shadow of American political pressure, is a reminder that the UN's independence is not guaranteed. It is at risk.
It is time to move the United Nations to a country that actually embodies what the UN stands for. Nations like Iceland, Switzerland, or Denmark  (consistently ranked among the most peaceful and neutral in the world)  offer what New York no longer can: a genuinely neutral home for global diplomacy.

The UN belongs to the world. Let's take it back.

Sign this petition and demand that world leaders begin the process of relocating the United Nations headquarters out of the United States.
