Description

Eurovision winner Nemo, known for their 2024 hit The Code, has criticized Israels participation in the contest, claiming it contradicts Eurovisions values of inclusion and dignity. Nemos statement adds to growing protests against the European Broadcasting Union, with five countries withdrawing from the 2026 event in Austria due to Israels eligibility. Nemo, who won with a genre-blending song, emphasized the need for off-stage decisions to align with on-stage values, and returned their trophy to the EBU, awaiting a time when words and actions align.
