400 Danish artists including Mø send petition to DR demanding to expel Israel from Eurovision!
More than 400 professionals associated with the Danish music industry have signed a petition asking for Israel to be excluded from Eurovision 2024.
According to Kulturmonitor, the signing artists demand the expulsion of Israel from the upcoming Eurovision 2024.
The list of signing artists includes well-known names in the music industry such as Tessa, Mø, Eee Gee, Pil, Marwan, Brimheim, Barbro, Erika de Casier, and many more.
“When Israel’s failure to comply with international law and order has no consequences, war crimes, occupation, and blockade are normalized. We believe that the EBU and all member states contribute to this normalization by allowing Israel to participate in this year’s Eurovision” says the open letter from the artists.
The petition finishes by stating that:
We cannot be passive and watch as a country that commits gross war crimes against an imprisoned people is invited to a joint celebration of music, diversity, and cohesion. We strongly urge DR to stand up for the exclusion of Israel in this year’s Eurovision.
