I feel everybody needs constructive dialogue and discovering methods to get the Eurovision Track Contest again on monitor.”
The EBU can ‘resolve the scenario’, so long as ‘needed steps’ are taken. “What the EBU does now’s essential for the way forward for Eurovision and the nationwide picks. Nevertheless, they need to act rapidly. Time is working out for the broadcasters who arrange the nationwide elections.”
The Norwegian broadcaster NRK will meet in regards to the closing version in Malmö, Sweden and ship the outcomes to the EBU, in line with the director of the delegation.

Norwegian band Gåte thought of withdrawing from the ultimate, however determined towards it after discussions with the EBU.
The Dutch entry Joost Klein was disqualified from the ultimate, which occurred for the primary time ever. The Netherlands has made an official report back to the EBU about an unsafe ambiance behind the scenes on the occasion.
