Apparently EBU is in talks with Kirkorov how to manipulate the voting to save the contest.

To be honest I get the point considering that you can’t exclude someone from something if investigation is still ongoing. There’s always presumption of innocence in legal cases so why not here. I‘m telling you why: EBU wants to avoid an outcome where Joost is actually proven guilty of something serious after the show and therefore the EBU and contest would be confronted with a lot of criticism in that scenario. So it feels like they decided to sacrifice Joost prematurely in order to keep away any post-contest from them. The thing is, the damage is done anyway with that.

I agree. Then again we basically don't know what evidence they do or don't have.
Overall this entire thing just seems fishy. I'm not a person for conspiracies but he did what he did in the qualifiers conference and all of a sudden there is this drama. Could obviously be a coincidence but maybe someone wanted to get rid off him. At this point anything seems possible.

I think this is the only Eurovision Song Contest that everyone can't wait for it to end. From Sunday no one will be nostalgic. It will take a year to recharge from the toxicity we have accumulated.

If anything, I'd skip the next one too, just to be sure.
