  1. IF ONLY 19 COUNTRIES WILL BE PARTICIPATING IN THE FESTIVAL I THINK THAT THIS WILL BE THE POOREST EVENT OF THE EBU…WHAT HAPPENS TO THE REMAINING COUNTRIES?…IN THE NORMAL EUROVISION CONTEST THERE ARE MORE THAN 40 PARTICIPANTS AND THERE ARE THREE EVENTS NOT ONLY ONE…I THINK THE EBU MUST BRING JUNIORS FROM ALL THE COUNTRIES IT BRINGS GROWN-UPS…
