President Emmanuel Macron says France’s envoy to Niger is living like a hostage in the French embassy.
Independent Mirror report that Macron told reporters on Friday that the ambassador is living off military rations just as he accused military rulers of blocking food deliveries to the mission.
You will remember that Niger’s military leaders had told French ambassador Sylvain Itte to leave the country after they overthrew President Mohamed Bazoum on July 26.
Asked whether France would consider bringing him home, Macron said he will do whatever is agreed between him and President Bazoum as he is the legitimate authority 8n the country.
