AGP Executive Report
Last update: 6 hours agoEurovision Fallout: Vienna’s grand final goes ahead tonight with 25 acts, but the show is still shadowed by a record boycott over Israel’s participation in the Gaza war. Spain, Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovenia and Iceland are out—and some broadcasters won’t air the contest at all—while organisers insist Eurovision is “apolitical” and say they’re ready for fresh disruptions. Political Pressure: Eurovision’s executive director Martin Green has also stirred fresh anger by saying Russia could “theoretically” return if its broadcaster meets rules, undercutting the contest’s neutrality message. Local Governance: In Ljubljana, the Human Rights Ombudsman says the right to a decent burial is a fundamental human right, after a centre-right coalition drafted a bill to formalise obligations for post-war summary killing victims. EU Enlargement: Seven EU states urged faster Western Balkan accession, warning candidate countries must still meet EU rules.
