French presidential candidate Valerie Pecresse appealed for donations on Monday to be able to pay off her campaign debt.

"The financial position of my campaign is now critical. We are not getting the 5% of the vote required to receive a refund of 7 million euros ($7.6 million) from the state. We need 7 million [euros] to complete this campaign. My personal debt is 5 million euros. I announce a nationwide appeal for donations," she told reporters.

Republican candidate Valérie Pécresse announced on Sunday that she bears responsibility for the loss, announcing her support for President Emmanuel Macron in the second round against the far-right Le Pen.
