Greta Thunberg Proposes Musical Twist at Eurovision

The EBU asked Greta Thunberg to join Eurovision. They wanted her to take Israel's place in the show. This was to stop some countries from boycotting the Eurovision event.

The EBU said countries at war cannot join. But, they cannot stop them for political reasons. The rules did not allow them to exclude a country based on politics.

The EBU had artists from the Third Reich before. One artist even won the competition. So, Israel will not be excluded but replaced by another singer.

Reuters said that Greta is thinking about the offer. She cannot make political speeches there. Eurovision is a music contest, not a place for political opinions.

Greta may do a diss-rap song for the show. Twisted Pistols, a Polish duo, might help her. This could be a new way for her to express her opinions through music.
