Eurovision 2017 winner Salvador Sobral slams Portugal’s broadcaster RTP over its decision to compete in Eurovision 2026!

In a video he said:

“This political cowardice we have is consistent with the institutional cowardice of public institutions. It makes me sad, because it’s not just a political issue; it’s a human issue, and the decision is obvious. What I can do is make an appeal. I’m not against Festival da Canção - on the contrary. I think it should happen, because it’s a good showcase for Portuguese artists, singers, and songwriters. It’s extremely important: there are few showcases, and the radio stations only play American music.”

“So, for me, it’s simple: whoever wins Festival da Canção does not go to Eurovision. It’s an easy decision. The Festival can be held with another kind of reward. And if that’s not decided by the public broadcaster, then it’s up to the participating artists to have that clarity.”

Salvador’s comments come at a time when RTP employees have also expressed their disapproval, saying they find it "incomprehensible" that the broadcaster has confirmed Portugal's participation and voted in favor of the rules keeping Israel in Eurovision 2026, "ignoring the appeals of Portuguese artists and civil society".

They urge RTP to reconsider its position.

Previously considering withdrawing, Portugal announced after the EBU General Assembly that they will remain in Eurovision 2026

Next week, Icelandic broadcaster RÚV will decide whether they are joining the boycott against Israel in Eurovision.

Ahead of their decision, one of their most famous exports, the singer Björk has weighed in.

She took to X to share an article where Icelandic singer Páll Óskar Hjálmtýsson (aka Paul Oscar, who competed at Eurovision 1997) called on RÚV to withdraw.

In the article he stated:

"The fact that Israel is allowed to be included now after everything that has happened before simply means that the EBU is a scumbag, and even if the EBU is a scumbag who can't set limits, who can't set limits for war criminals, we don't have to be scumbags."

In response, Björk posted:

"We stand by every single word of Páll Óskar's and wish the RÚV board courage in decision-making on Wednesday. Think with the heart, thanks Páll Óskar x"

In 2019, Paul called for a boycott of Eurovision being held in Israel.

However, his comments received condemnation and accusations of anti-Semitism. He said at the time:

“The reason why the rest of Europe has been virtually silent is that Jews have woven themselves into the fabric of Europe in a very sly way for a very long time. It is not at all hip and cool to be pro-Palestine in Britain.”

“The tragedy is that Jews learned nothing from the Holocaust. Instead, they have taken up the exact same policy of their worst enemy.”

He apologised for his comments, stating:

“I made judgements and generalisations about Jewish people. … I take full responsibility for these words, take back my remarks about Jewish people, they are wrong and hurtful. I will take responsibility in actions, from this point forward, and will never again speak ill of the Jewish people, wherever in the world they may live.”

In September, Björk joined the No Music For Genocide movement, which means her music unavailable on streaming services in Israel.

Icelandic broadcaster RÚV has stated that its board will discuss on Wednesday whether Iceland will take part in the 2026 Eurovision Song Contest.

Belgium confirms its participation at Eurovision 2026!

Overnight, Australian time, the Director-General of Belgian broadcaster RTBF Jean-Paul Phillipot confirmed the broadcaster will participate in Vienna.

Jean-Paul Philippot insists that "our participation is therefore accompanied by a clear stance to denounce the obstacles to the freedom of information, to demand the protection of all citizens and journalists, and to guarantee their safe presence on the ground. Because culture is never entertainment detached from reality. Because the public service has a duty to remain faithful to humanity, editorial independence, and freedom. "

"the Eurovision Song Contest is one of those unique spaces where diversity, inclusion, and artistic freedom converge. Participating in Eurovision in 2026 cannot be done without looking at the world as it is, and without remembering that the duty to inform must be carried out with complete independence; that of giving citizens the tools to understand the issues facing the world is an essential democratic foundation. "

Iceland now remains the next country to possibly boycott, joining Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovenia and Spain.

The Icelandic broadcaster RUV, which had previously reserved the right not to participate, said it would consider its position at a board meeting on Wednesday.

Following yesterday’s vote, broadcasters have been asked by the EBU to confirm their participation in Eurovision 2026. The full list of participanting countries will be announced before Christmas.

Australia's broadcaster SBS has released a statement on its position following boycotts of Eurovision 2026 after the EBU approved Israel to compete.

Today, Spain, Slovenia, Ireland, and the Netherlands have announced that they have withdrawn from the Contest set to take place in Vienna next year due to Israel competing.

Iceland and Belgium are also discussing their position on participation in Eurovision next year.

Regarding these, developments SBS issued the ABC the following statement:

“SBS’s coverage of Eurovision will continue in 2026. Eurovision was created to bring people and cultures together through music, a purpose that continues to guide the contest and has shaped SBS’s broadcast for more than 40 years," a spokesperson said.

"Our position remains that, as a public broadcaster, making a decision to be involved based on the inclusion or exclusion of any country would undermine SBS’s editorial independence and impartiality. SBS recognises and respects the deeply held views and concerns about the war in the Middle East and its impact, both locally among our audiences and internationally, as reflected by other broadcasters.

"Our responsibility is to provide comprehensive, trusted and impartial coverage for Australians across our network, and we will continue to do so.”

A Swedish white supremacist has been sentenced to prison after authorities uncovered a detailed plan to attack the Eurovision Song Contest 2020 in Rotterdam.

The man, identified as 23-year-old Alexander H, had been living in Luxembourg, where he built a bomb making setup and drafted extensive plans for mass violence.

A fully equipped bomb workshop uncovered

Police discovered a complete explosives workshop in the basement of his home, including chemicals, tools, and components needed to construct bombs.

Investigators found a detailed document titled “Fun time for Eurovision 2020 For a Better and Less Overly Susceptible Future”, which set out multiple attack scenarios.

The plans included releasing chemical agents such as cyanide or chlorine gas inside an arena.

They also described launching explosive devices into crowds using rockets or other delivery mechanisms.

Some sections outlined ways to sabotage emergency exits so that people would become trapped inside during an attack.

Prosecutors said the level of detail showed clear intent and a willingness to cause mass casualties.

Authorities also presented evidence linking him to far-right groups including neo Nazi and eco fascist networks.

They said he had been sharing bomb making information and encouraging others to adopt violent extremist ideology.

Attack plans extended beyond Eurovision

The investigation revealed he had also considered sending a parcel bomb to a Swedish video production company.

He researched carrying out an attack on an oil depot in Sweden.

Communication logs showed discussions about these ideas with a suspected Dutch accomplice.

Prosecutors said the range of targets demonstrated a broader ambition for widespread violence rather than a single focused plot.

Documents out of Kazakhstan today reveal that a potential Eurovision debut has been discussed with the European Broadcasting Union (EBU).

The information, revealed by ESC KAZ, comes from the Ministry of Culture and Information of Kazakhstan.

The document states that:

“The Ministry highly values the importance of the Eurovision Song Contest as one of the world’s leading creative platforms, and recognises its significant role in cultural exchange and in promoting national art at the global level.”

It also reveals that over the summer, there was a meeting between Kazakh’s broadcaster Khabar Agency and the Director General of the EBU Noel Curran.

The documents states that:

“At present, the EBU has not made a decision on this matter, and the issue will be considered at the beginning of next year.”

However, the papers also reveal that finances look to be a significant issue.

“At the same time, even if a positive decision were to be made by the EBU, questions regarding Kazakhstan’s participation would remain open. According to the Agency’s assessment, participation in such a major international contest requires significant financial resources, and currently there is no approved budget to support this.”

The news comes ahead of an important EBU meeting this week where Israel’s participation will be discussed.

A number of countries will potentially boycott Eurovision 2026 if Israel competes.

It also follows news that Canada’s participation in Eurovision has been discussed.

Kazakhstan and Eurovision

Kazakhstan is an Associate Member of the EBU, meaning, like Australia it will need an invite to participate.

They have competed at Junior Eurovision on five occasions, finishing runner-up twice.

“The goal of registration is to ensure fair ticket access and prevent ‘bot purchases’ or commercial resale,” they added. ,

On Monday 24 November, more details of the ticket and registration will be revealed.

German Eurovision act @cascada_official has performed to crowds at Sydney’s Raydia Festival.

Cascada, which was originally a trio, is now a solo show led by lead singer Natalie Horler.

They competed at Eurovision in 2013 with Glorious finishing 21st on the night.

It was a tough result for them as they had many top hits across Europe, including Everytime We Touch and Evacuate the Dancefloor. The latter reached No.3 in Australia.

Natalie put on a full production show in front of a huge crowd at the largest Australian LGBTQIA+ music festival of 2025.

The reception was universal with fans complimenting the show and her voice.

“The icon that she is! What a performance,” one fan posted.

While others said “She’s a saint” while many were surprised by her voice posting “She can sing!”

Cascada already on her way home

Those hoping for more Australian Cascada shows, will be disappointed.

After performing Saturday night, Natalie had a day at Bondi Becah before flying out Sunday night.

She praised the festival and the crowd.

“Australia is done, we had the best time at the Raydia Festival, she said.

“Everyone went off, we had the best time ever.”

“I had a lovely day at the beach, it was lovely weather, got a tan.”

Natalie is now off to perform in Germany this week and turn on the Christmas lights in Perth, Scotland.
