Russian people who participate in the ESC bear no responsibility in what Putin and his oligarchs do. They are pretty progressive. The song last year was a Feminist bop and definitely not Russian state propaganda. That said, I don't know the Russian candidates this year

Well, it is the TV broadcasters in each country that send their entry and in Russias case I doubt their broadcaster is independent from their regime.

Last year the Belarusian broadcaster lost its membership in the EBU because of the **** that happened there so it's only fair to kick Russia out as well.

@Lockeis something funny in my post?

It is a stupid action in a sense that what we need now is conversation rather than punishing the people because of their stupid government. This action will only cause more isolation and chiasm.

There are people in Russia protesting against their leader, my Russian friends are feeling devastated and ashamed for their government at the moment (even ashamed to be 'Russian'). An event like Eurovision represents a vision that brings cultures and people together.

Finland needs to use its NATO option asap as they're the only non-allied country, that shares border with Russia and haven't been attacked yet.

And period, they did the right thing :applause:

Putin said today that if Finland joined NATO, there will be consequences by Russia :saladga:

I'm not having fun tonight.

I do not blame entire Russian population but I find it perverse for Russia to be allowed to participate in events celebrating peace and Unity, harmony etc. While killing and invading sovereign states. Not allowing to participate in this Type of events also sends strong Message and should absolutely be Done.

Just read that :triggered: Somebody really needs to pull up JFK 2.0 asap.

However, ex-nato secretary general stated last month, that if Finland and Sweden applied to join NATO, they could become members within the next day. Planning an attack for sure takes longer than a day, so I believe Putin's hands would be tied when it comes to Finland and NATO.

Economy

I applause this but it seems like little symbolic stuff like this kind of slap on the wrist is all Governments are doing

 

I think a tougher message needs to be sent and the sanctions on trade need to be tougher

 

But not oil and gas like some suggested. Europe is already in a big energy crunch rn as it is the world cannot handle loosing even more oil and natural gas right now
