Gadi Eisenkot is reportedly the leading candidate to become the next Knesset speaker, according to sources within the "Change bloc" of parties. If no significant shifts occur in ongoing negotiations, Eisenkot, the leader of the Yisrael Beiteinu party, is expected to secure the position.
Sources familiar with the talks indicate that a meeting between Eisenkot and Avigdor Lieberman resolved a key obstacle, as Lieberman was previously considered a major impediment to an agreement. However, these understandings still require approval from the other coalition partners before a final consensus can be reached.
Recent discussions have involved Eisenkot, Naftali Bennett, and Lieberman, alongside efforts to advance other potential candidates. Some parties within the bloc had favored appointing a party leader to the speaker role, with the expectation that they could resign later to make way for a mutually agreed-upon successor once a permanent government is formed.
Bennett has conveyed to Eisenkot that he will have the authority to choose the permanent Knesset speaker. This suggests Eisenkot has maintained control over the appointment to this sensitive position, which could hold significant political weight in the near future. Yisrael Beiteinu has declined to comment on the specifics at this time.
