      Do you know where Monaco is? Commute from France use buildings in France. The ambassador can commute for Monaco state events and talks.

      An yes this is different, it’s different to save cost. Effective outcomes for French citizens will be the same

              No, they recieve free housing in the form of an official residence while living abroad. Something that can be cut by a commute.

              And before you get hung up on a commute where as I’ve said an exhausting number of times a commute to attend state functions held by Monaco or diplomatic talks with the Monaco government. All of these would take place in buildings that are owned by Monaco.

                The entire point of an embassy is for you to host things. So you’re suggesting they have

                • a place of residence in France for an ambassador
                • a normal place for an ambassador
                • renting expensive facilities in Monaco for special events

                Rather than, y’know, using the one they own.

                  No…

                  At this point I’m just going to have to infer you’re being intentionally difficult. You seem to be stating the complete opposite of what I’ve said intentionally
