History

Eurovision 2017

Vladislav Chokin has accidentally established a tradition of Eurovision following after victory of Ukrainian singer Jamala in 2016, and due to his allegiance to own micronation he accepted opinion of its citizens (including himself) as national one, which must be recorded.

In situation with Russian singer who was banned from entering in Ukraine, Chokin criticizes both sides of scandal: Yuliya Samoilova was opted by the state "First Channel" factually without any kind of inner contests or votes which Yuliya couldn't win due to her low popularity. Besides this, Samoilova had visited Crimea through the Russian side, which is considered by Ukraine as illegal entry at the national territory (so, Samoilova was banned to enter). "First Channel" is completely alleged to Russian government which is interested in destructive propaganda against of western countries, and by popular opinion an option of Samoilova was looking exactly as clear provocation. Ukrainian side is blamed for radical reaction which has completely fulfilled the hopes of propagandists and escalated this conflict, giving to Russian pro-governmental media more reasons to blame Ukrainians for nationalism and rusophobia.

A favorite singer of Chokin – Lindita Halimi with her "World" – was left the contest in first semi-final, while other highly rated singers got too low ratings. This fact is used by him as one of the evidences of factual Eurovision's subornation. By generalized opinion of all Vladislavia, a winner – Salvador Sobral – was performing very nice and deserved high points, but not the biggest ones.

Eurovision 2018

ESC 2018 wasn't followed as much as the previous one. Due to this, national rates were made without according with contest's chronology – not by beginning from semifinals, but vise-versa.
