The Likud on Tuesday began the process of replacing Knesset Speaker Mickey Levy. The Religious Zionist Party (RZP) rescinded its refusal to support the move after a breakthrough in coalition negotiations with the Likud was reached late Monday. The request to convene the plenum to replace Levy, a Yesh Atid MK, needs to have at least 61 signatures. On Tuesday, the Likud began to collect signatures from the incoming coalition members. Talks between the Likud and United Torah Judaism, however, stalled this week. UTJ MKs said they would not support Levy’s replacement unless there is a “significant advancement” in the negotiations.
