Moldova: "The contest is very political", claims Natalia Barbu! - Eurovision News | Music

Natalia Barbu returned to the contest after seventeen years with “In The Middle“. However, her second attempt was nowhere near as successful as her first one and she did not make it to the finals.

Barbu expressed her disappointment on the result claiming that the reasons behind her non qualification was of political nature:

It’s very political and it doesn’t matter because my piece is about light, it’s about beauty and I’m convinced that I connected with a lot of people, but this contest probably isn’t just about that.

However, she feels thankful having lived the experience once again:

I thank God for this experience itself. It was nice and I think that if I got here, in this competition, I didn’t get there for nothing, because from now on a new and beautiful stage begins in my career and in my life.
