"If in the judicious determination of the members of the United Nations they feel they are not welcome and treated with the hostly consideration that is their due, the United States strongly encourages member states to seriously consider removing themselves and this organization from the soil of the United States. We will put no impediment in your way and we will be at the dockside bidding you a farewell as you set off into the sunset." UN Ambassador Charles Lichenstein, 20 Sep. 1983 source

"Maybe all those delegates should have six months in Moscow and then six months in New York, and it would give them an opportunity to see two ways of life. I think the gentleman [Charles Lichenstein] who spoke the other day had the hearty approval of most people in America in his suggestion that we weren’t asking anyone to leave, but if they chose to leave, good-bye." President Ronald Reagan, 21 Sep. 1983 press conference, in response to Amb. Lichenstein's remarks. source

But like a bad relative that, not taking the hints, stayed too long after Christmas, perhaps it is time to encourage them to go.
