100 European broadcasters snub Zelensky; Big ’u-turn’ after being denied airtime at Eurovision

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has reportedly been denied the opportunity to address audiences at the highly touted Eurovision Contest Finale this weekend. Organizers have rejected a request from Zelensky’s office to make a video address to the audiences as it would breach the “non-political“ nature of the event. The decision was taken by the European Broadcasting Union, a grouping of national public broadcasters that runs the Eurovision. Later, a spokesperson from the Ukrainian president’s office claimed that Kyiv made no such request.
