AGP Executive Report
Last update: an hour agoEurovision Flashpoint: The Eurovision grand final heads into Saturday after a first semi-final in Vienna that was anything but music-only—five countries (Spain, Ireland, Slovenia, the Netherlands and Iceland) boycotted over Israel’s participation, while pro-Palestine chants (“stop the genocide”) erupted during Israel’s Noam Bettan performance and security dragged a protester away in handcuffs. San Marino Spotlight: San Marino’s entry—Senhit featuring Culture Club’s Boy George—failed to qualify, sparking online backlash and “pointless/ruined” complaints, though George later said he had a “fabulous” experience and will reunite with Senhit in Milan. Final Lineup: Finland, Israel and nine others booked spots for the final; eliminated acts included Estonia, Georgia, Montenegro, Portugal and San Marino. Local Governance: San Marino’s Ship Register says the IMO has formally recognized full STCW compliance. Community & Culture: A Cuba solidarity event is set for San Marino di Carpi, with aid convoys and the Henry Reeve Brigade involved.
