Spain, Ireland, Slovenia will not show Eurovision: Broadcasters

The public broadcasters for Spain, Ireland, and Slovenia said Monday that they will not show the Eurovision Song Contest this week as they boycott the event over Israel's participation.

"For the next 10 days, instead of the Eurovision circus, the national television programme will be coloured by the thematic programme series 'Voices of Palestine'," Slovenian broadcaster RTV said.

Ireland's RTE will show a comedy, and Spain will run its own musical special instead of this year's Eurovision from Vienna, which kicks off on Tuesday. Five countries are boycotting the contest.
