Jaw-jaw beats war-war, hands down
Due to its location (and its neutrality) Vienna is a hub for
a host of international organizations and since 1979 the location
of the 4th headquarters (photo) of the United
Nations (with New York, Geneva and Nairobi). It is also
home to one of the most prominent of the UN bodies: the International
Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
In 2005 the IAEA and its then Director General Mohamed Elbaradei
were awarded the Nobel
Prize for Peace for "their work for a safer and more
peaceful world."
