05.12.2025 00:40 | Category World

Spain, Ireland, the Netherlands and Slovenia have decided to withdraw from the Eurovision Song Contest following the decision by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) General Assembly to allow Israel to participate.

Eurovision 2026 will be held without the participation of these countries, which previously opposed Israel's participation due to the ongoing fighting in the Gaza Strip. Broadcasters in these countries also refused to broadcast the competition.

Thirty-one countries have confirmed their participation in "Eurovision". However, broadcasters in Iceland and Belgium have not yet made a decision, and countries that have already confirmed their participation may withdraw their decision.
