(MENAFN- Swissinfo) “Geneva is one of the most, if not the most interesting place in the world to do international law. The United Nation's International Law Commission is based here, its role is to develop international law. All major multilateral treaties were prepared here," says Levrat.
The UN special rapporteur on minority issues, Nicolas Levrat, is talking in his fifth floor office at the University of Geneva's Global Studies Institute in the city's central Plainpalais district, right next to the contemporary art museum, MAMCO. A huge clock hangs on the wall of his office that catches the eye of visitors as it runs anticlockwise. It is a present from my daughter, he explains.
The interview takes place just before the start of his six-year mandate on November 1, 2023. Levrat stepped down as the director of the Global Studies Institute at the University of Geneva at the end of December.
