Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

Geneva is in the French-speaking part of Switzerland. (hence "Genève") and Geneva is the capital of the Swiss Canton of Geneva, located in the south-westernmost corner of Switzerland. The city is situated along the banks of Europe's largest lake, Lake Geneva (Lac Léman), at the mouth of the Rhone River and is bordered by the Jura Mountains to the west and the French Alps in the east. So it's false.
