It's a mystery that ended Tuesday, November 26. In an interview given to MondeAnne Hidalgo announced that she will not run in the 2026 municipal elections in Paris and will therefore not seek a third term, after her victories in 2014 and 2020. The decision of the socialist mayor of Paris did not fail to get people to react, starting with their municipal team. “We have profoundly transformed Paris. It is a decisive decade which was written to prepare the capital for climate issues.

Loyal to Anne Hidalgo, whom he supported during the 2022 presidential election, the socialist mayor of Montpellier, Michaël Delafosse, highlighted “l’immense respect“which he takes to the mayor of the capital”whose action irreversibly transforms Paris in the face of climate and social issues“.
Critics from the right of the political spectrum

“The good news of the day“, Marion Maréchal simply wrote onThe division. Even in his own camp. This is what Anne Hidalgo sowed throughout her mandate“, she denounced.
