Quotes

Betty E. King
Ambassador, U.S. Permanent Representative to the United Nations in Geneva
"Geneva has a unique and special place in world affairs. In some circles we are sometimes seen as the junior partner to UN New York. Each location has a distinct and essential role to play. I like to say that Geneva is where rhetoric meets reality, where we implement the critical UN mandates, in short, where the rubber meets the road."
