Holy cow, things aren't going well at the Eurovision special meeting to deal with the Israel situation.
The following countries have pulled out of 2026 Eurovision:
* Spain
* The Netherlands
* Slovenia
* Ireland
* Belgium
And also possibly Iceland, they're waiting to have a meeting at home next week to confirm.
This is huge news, Spain and the Netherlands are in the top 6 countries financially paying for Eurovision.
I wouldn't be suprised if more countries followed.
