Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has announced that he would resign next month, throwing his country into political turmoil in a move that could stall US-backed Mideast peace efforts.
Olmert said he would not run in his party’s primary election, set for September 17, and would step down afterwards.
“I have decided that I will not run in the Kadima primaries, likewise I have no intention of intervening in the internal elections that will be held as decided on my own initiative and I will welcome their results,” Olmert said.
“My decision was not taken out of bitterness or preaching morals. I came just to say a little about what has been in my heart for many months,” he added.
Olmert’s brief address included harsh criticism of police investigations of corruption allegations against him.
He said he was choosing the public good over personal justice. He has denied wrongdoing, but pledged to resign if indicted.
His decision not to run in the Kadima Party primary sets in motion a process to choose a new prime minister.
