The article is a little weird. This is my interpretation, need to look for other sources.

President says that the ambassador is “taken hostage, literally”.
Military in Niger wants him out of the country, but French government says that his work is too valuable, he must stay.
Military says " OK, but he can’t leave the embassy, Persona Non Grata".

Technically the ambassador has either choice of leaving the country or staying inside the embassy. Food is not delivered anymore, leaving him with military rations to eat.

The French variant of the article says that there is only military rations left to eat at the embassy.
But your post kind of implies that the French embassador is “force fed” military rations? This is a very weird way to translate it.

Nope, autistic burnout. Is the reason I stayed, for someone genuinely struggling.
But now I’m out, never ever again.

I didn’t like the situation, but I still did it because I liked the relationship. I see where is the misunderstanding now. My bad, and thank you

They would stop replying to any message, be overall unreachable, ghosting me when we planned a getaway at that date.
I assumed they needed space. I’m fine with respecting boundaries, even if it stings nonetheless when you miss them.

But stopping literally existing out of the blue?
How much time do you need? Days, weeks? Should I wait for you to contact me? Should we cancel this weekend?
No way to get an answer. No, nothing.
Just toss a coin and try to find out.

This is an interesting take, and I learnt from it. Would you mind sharing one or two of your references?
I had a heated discussion the other day on this topic, and I wish to know more.
On the other hand, I don’t really understand your statement that nobody is seriously building reactor lately.
China has started building new reactors. They are not planning but effectively doing it. Am I missing something?

Gives a Thalos Principle vibe, somehow
