This weekend’s Eurovision Song Contest will have Ukrainian flags, Ukrainian musicians and Ukrainian fans—but not the country’s wartime leader.
Organisers say they rejected a request from President Volodymyr Volodymyr Zelensky to make a video address to the final of t he pan-continental music competition on Saturday. He was expected to urge the world to continue its support for Ukraine’s fight to repel Russian invasion.
The European Broadcasting Union—a grouping of national public broadcasters that runs Eurovision—said that letting Volodymyr Zelensky participate would breach “the nonpolitical nature of the event.”
