Baku has problems with Eurovision 2012 organization

Baku experiences problems with organization of Eurovision 2012 song contest.

“Currently, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) is discussing reserve variants,” chairman of the Armenian Public Television and Radio Council Aleksan Harutyunyan told journalists in Yerevan.

“As to our participation in Eurovision 2012, the Armenian delegation is waiting for security guarantees from the European Broadcasting Union, as Azerbaijan’s semi-guarantees are not enough,” he said.

Ell/Nikki from Azerbaijan, who received the highest number of points from televoters and juries from the 43 countries participating in this year's edition of Europe's favorite TV-show, managed to gather 221 points altogether - followed by Raphael Gualazzi from Italy with 189 points and Sweden's Eric Saade who collected 185 points.

Armenia’s Emmy did not reach the final with Boom Boom song.
