“We are proud and grateful to Samanta for her strong performance on the big stage of Eurovision. We keep our fingers crossed for Lithuania’s neighbors, ”Prime Minister Krišjānis Kariņš wrote on the microblogging site Twitter today.
Lithuania is the only Baltic country to enter the Eurovision final this year. Latvia, like Estonia, had to withdraw from the fight after the semi-finals.

In the Eurovision app, viewers have the opportunity to send virtual applause and express their emotions. Samantina Tina received virtually 379 hearts, 44 surprising emoticons, 41 angry and 84 sad “faces” yesterday. The Roop fans, on the other hand, have been more cautious so far. The group has received 37 recommendations, but no virtual hearts.
