I am “hugely disappointed” that the venue such as ‘Eurovision’ completely forget to mention and include country such as SLOVAKIA which is currently the part of EU. There are many fans and supporters of this country and I do not understand the reason why that could happened.
This will have a huge impact on the reputation for the organizational team who is responsible for the process of the show.
I really hope than someone will pick up on this for me personally “BIG ISSUE” and If necessary I am even prepared to go to press with it….
