Paris: Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo said she would run for the president in 2022 on a socialist ticket, even though the poll showed that he had a little chance to put up a serious challenge unit, he could unite the fragmented left.
“Knowing the seriousness of our day and to give hope to our lives, I have decided to become a candidate for French presidency,” the 62-year-old said announced his offer in the city of Normandy Rouen.
Hidalgo, who became the first woman to run the capital of France in 2014 and was among several senior senior politicians to emerge from the Redrawing of President Emmanuel Macron from a relatively injured political landscape, was polling at around 8% of voter support in April first round .
