What I don't understand is why they've decided to withdraw now when the rules they're complaining about were introduced a few years ago.
I can understand some countries being annoyed with the Big 5 rule, I probably would be if my country wasn't in the Big 5. But Turkey almost always do a lot better than the Big 5 anyway so I can't see why that's a problem for them.
As for the rule of 50/50 jury/public votes, I can't really see what the problem is. I think it was a rule that needed to be introduced (even if the jury votes are quite odd). So the jury ranked them quite low this year, but they stilled managed to get a top 10 ranking.

When are they going to reveal which countries are officially taking part? EBU said it'll be released before Christmas, any day after 15th December. |
