Olmert: Sharon destined me to succeed him
Former Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told the Jerusalem District Court that former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon convinced him to join his government.
"He asked me to leave the municipality. He said, 'I want you to be in a situation from which in the future you'll be able to take the role I am filling now." I saw that as more than just talk, that he destined me to succeed him." (Aviad Glickman)
