Vasil to remain as North Macedonia's Eurovision entrant

North Macedonia's Eurovision entrant Vasil confirmed that he will be performing in Rotterdam this year.

Earlier this month a review was set up by broadcaster MRT after backlash in the country over imagery of the Bulgarian flag in his video.

This imagery was removed before the review.

Additionally many other comments in petitions against him, suggested other motivations may have also been at play.

Following the announcement of the review, the Eurovision community united in support of Vasli with many starting their own petitions calling on him to remain.

In good news, today Vasil confirmed on his social media channels that he would be taking part.

Additionally North Macedonia's fan site also confirmed the news:

Vasil will perform in semi-final one with the song he wrote called 'Here I Stand'.
