The same thing happened in 1988, when the US tried to block Yasser Arafat from addressing the UN in New York. The UN promptly resolved to move to Geneva if the US didn't reverse itself immediately.

But Arafat didn't represent an actual recognized country.

Given America's embarrassing estrangement from the world community over the Palestinian issue, Shultz finally relented on Dec. 14, 1988, saying the United States would recognize the PLO. Talks began the next day in Tunisia between the PLO and U.S. representatives, but they were so constrained by U.S. restrictions that they made no progress. Under Israeli prodding, they were broken off in 1992.

What advantage does the USA get for having the UN in New York? Or what detriment would it be to the USA to it to be in Geneva?

Found this
An economic impact report conducted by the NYC Mayor's Office for International Affairs in found that the UN boosts the NYC economy by $3.69 billion each year.
It's probably hosting The UN makes America seem importanter, ask any New Yorker and they would be happy to see it leave. It makes traffic unbearable

We pretty much founded it, and we're continuing to shit on it.
Not paying our bills, and now apparently not playing by the rules establishing the UN Headquarters in New York.

Seems this story line is a bit premature.
And yet the NY Times is reporting it as recently as 3 hours ago.
May be lots of back channel stuff going on on the diplomatic front right now.
A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters on Monday that Zarif would not be given a visa to attend Thursday’s meeting. Zarif confirmed on Tuesday that he would not be given a U.S. visa.
“What we know is that the U.S. State Secretary (Mike Pompeo), in a call to the Secretary General of the United Nations (Antonio Guterres), said: ‘We did not have time to issue a visa for Mohammad Javad Zarif and we will not issue a visa’,” said Zarif, according to Iran’s semi-official ISNA news agency.
“The Secretary General responded by saying that it is Iran’s right to take part in this session,” Zarif said.

The Foreign Minister was on NPR yesterday being interviewed and said he was told the US didn't have enough time (20+ days) to approve his visa. That's not denying him but it's obviously playing games.
Considering this is all probably over with, things will now return to normal for a while.
