The person who is supposed to make a decision in the coming days whether to run for the position of President of the State is Minister Silvan Shalom.
A few days after Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein ordered the investigation file against him to be closed, his wife, Judy Shalom Nir Mozes, responded for the first time to the affair. In an interview with Orly and Guy's morning show on Channel 10, Shalom Nir Mozes said that there are no other politicians as clean as him: "I have nothing to hide. My husband and I did nothing wrong, we went through a period that I wouldn't wish on anyone. Sylvan has been in politics for 35 years and they never said he took a bribe or was a friend of criminals, he has never had a police investigation in his life.
""They were always looking and trying to find stories but nothing, zero. He was just as white as snow. I won't say it wasn't a nightmare, but I'm after it," she said of the recent period. "The bottom line is that gossip can be found about anyone, but the bottom line is that the consultant said that this examination ended in nothing. It won't help, this man is honest, period," she clarified.

Shalom Nir Mozes addressed the interviewers' question about the possibility of her husband running for president. "I think my calling is to help people, and (from the President's Office) I can help more and meet people from all over the world. Maybe that's why I would be happy to be at the President's Office." Minister Shalom's wife emphasized that the decision to run for president "is solely Silvan's.".
