Incoming Likud MK Danny Danon announces his intention to run for the position of speaker of the Knesset.

Danon, a former ambassador to the UN, calls for the speaker to be replaced as soon as possible, even before a new government is sworn in.

Danon’s call comes before final results are in, but with the Likud-led bloc heading toward a clear victory.
