Aiming to financial consolidation

Montenegro withdraws from Eurovision 2010

Montenegro is the latest country to announce its withdrawal from the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest. The state television of the republic, RTCG, have claimed financial reasons for this decision.

Montenegro will miss the 2010 edition of the Eurovision Song Contest. According to their national broadcaster, in a brief announcement, the decision has been taken in order to reach financial consolidation after three years as an independent state.

The country debuted at the Eurovision Song Contest in 2007 and has participated ever since. This year, their representative was Andrea Demirovic with the song Just get out of my life, narrowly missing out the final landing on 11th place in the first semifinal, Montenegro's best placing in Eurovision.

Spain ALWAYS goes late. In 2008 TVE didn't say anything until late January!

oh well, nothing worth wondering... when they were with serbia they could use serbia's budget, and still send their songs, due to unfair voting from them.

Personal i thing european countries with different music are Nordic's and Baltic's , usual when that countries send up tempo songs i dont like them beacuse is so strange to me ( in acoustic way ) exeptional was Norway this year and that beacuse Alexander song have folclor music, i thing that countries is more close to American way pop music, but in ballands things change , that countries usual send the perfect ballands from whole Europe, and i dont speak about folclor ballands beacuse ex yugo send the perfect folclor ballands. :)

Besir has just do that, because he will be in a realtion with Nihal, but he has done it right to leave a message on the camcorder, because the old man ( Adnan ) should know it! :P


@Kenan

@Patte Linouuu

Yes, Western-European countries are good I agree, but Eastern-European countries are better! :)

@Lina !!!

I don't think one of these countries ( Czech Rep., Hungary and Montenegro ) would withdraw, if one of these countries would win this year ( 2009 )! Maybe EBU would help them ( or other countries )! ;)
