Seen something on twitter about pressure on Latvia to withdrew from next edition due to funds. Hope this does not happen.

Good news: the Latvian parliament voted against the petition to permanently withdraw from the contest, so that clears the way for participation in 2025

Everytime I'm amazed / amused when the ESC actually makes it into a parliament discussion in a country. :lol:

"Eurovision is not political" unless we have a bunch of politicians spending taxpayers' money to debate on whether Eurovision suits the country's morals in parliament... Jesus.

Serbia has been doing this since the Yugo days. Clashing with our Yugo neighbors made the national selections difficult and messy politically. Since we returned in 2004 (especially when we kicked out Montenegro in 2006), cheery-picking entries that were faithful to our cultural values was the way to go.
