That sucks! It woulda been so cool to have more of an unbiased point of view, plus this would've probably been the closest to San Marino winning anything ESC-related.
The head of their delegation said that SMRTV were unable to find suitable candidate from San Marino to represent them in Armenia. They will now concentrate on ESC in Baku.
Despite this information withdrawal is not officialy confirmed yet. Also Sietse speaks for 14 countries in his recent interview for ESCKAZ, so there maybe is still at least small chance to see San Marino in Yerevan (or i hope so).
