Geneva fights to remain ‘kitchen’ of world diplomacy as Trump cuts bite
SHARE

The prestigious Hotel d’Angleterre in Geneva was bustling with activity on a warm April afternoon. However, the mood among the city’s diplomats and officials was somber. With global trade in turmoil, the rise of autocracy, and cuts to international aid organizations, there is a sense of unease about Geneva’s future as a hub of global politics.

Xavier Rey de Lasteyrie, CEO of Rey Group, expressed concern about the rapidly changing world and the importance of Geneva as a place for crucial discussions and exchanges of information. Despite its reputation for leisurely lunches and extravagant expenses, Geneva has played a pivotal role in hosting historic summits, high-level meetings, and negotiations that have shaped international diplomacy.

The decision by President Trump to withdraw from the World Health Organization sent shockwaves through Geneva. The city has faced crises before, but the current challenges pose a new level of complexity and urgency. Budget cuts and layoffs at various international bodies based in Geneva have created uncertainty about the city’s future as a center of humanitarian work and diplomacy.

As the US and other European countries shift their focus towards rearmament and domestic priorities, Geneva is beginning to witness a changing geopolitical landscape. China’s increasing involvement and financial contributions to UN agencies signal a shift in power dynamics, with Beijing taking on a more prominent role in global governance.

However, concerns have been raised about China’s activities in Geneva, including surveillance and harassment of critics. While new funding sources are needed to support the city’s international organizations, there is a recognition that Geneva must adapt to the evolving geopolitical climate.

Geneva’s identity as a humanitarian hub is at risk as organizations like the UN Refugee Agency face significant budget cuts and staff reductions. The city’s economy, driven by sectors like private banking and luxury goods, may need to find a new balance as diplomatic and aid work faces challenges.

Despite the uncertainties, there is a sense of resilience among Geneva’s residents. Calls for unity and support for the city’s international organizations have been echoed by political leaders and community members. While the road ahead may be challenging, there is a determination to preserve Geneva’s status as a key player in global politics and diplomacy.
