Bulgaria, Israel y Rumanía, top 3 de #Eurovision2026, candidaturas financiadas con fondos israelíes. Las teles búlgara y rumana, sin presupuesto para el festival, han vuelto este año con patrocinio israelí y para paliar la marcha de los países del boicot. La broma se cuenta sola.

🚨 BREAKING:

An ESC Insight investigation has revealed that weaknesses persist in the security of the #Eurovision voting system.

One reporter was able to cast a total of 90 votes during the period for the same two countries only using one device.

Israel’s efforts to influence the Eurovision vote were broader and started years earlier than previously known https://t.co/GWjVVyQM1W A story Mara Hvistendahl and I have worked on for a very long time!

Normally at the start of Eurovision week I'd be buzzing with excitement now. The contest no longer represents the values is supposed to stand for, and lost a lot of dedicated fans in the process.

[eIeo 🏒 @teatrodiravol2]

imagine losing your second and sixth biggest financial contributors, a big five member and a founding member at that, just to keep a genocidal country without morals in? actually insane.

[vivi 🇮🇸 @joosiepotsi]

Btw this is not about a dumb song contest. It's about a powerful international organization being an accomplice in the most well documented genocide of our time and giving the perpetrator a pat on the back.

[lia? @krolevarqa]

crazy how an event that was created to bring europe together after countless wars and conflicts is now destroying itself just to protect a non european genocidal state

Eurovision fans waiting for the voting results to see if *that country* is finally kicked out like... #eurovisionsongcontest #eurovision #ebu

Local pub is refusing to pit the sound on the TVs for England vs Sweden saying they only put it on for Liverpool matches. If it was a quarter final match for the Men's Euros, then they'd have the sound on. Hypocrites. @BBCSport #womenseuros #engvswe

[Michael King @MiichaelKing]

The UK’s problem with Eurovision begins at home, and needs fixing.

Remember Monday didn’t finish last, or even bottom five for that matter. Overall they scored 88 points.

But major news outlets won’t lead with that story, and would rather concentrate on a negative.

The producers putting both of the boat songs (Austria and Iceland) together is the kind of tomfoolery we love to see #Eurovision2025 #Iceland #Austria
