PRESS RELEASE (YEREVAN, ARMENIA) - Armenia has always followed the
rules and performed accordingly in the Eurovision Song Contest.
Armenian Public TV Company has always respected and approached the
rules of the ESC with complete seriousness and this year is not an
exception. Genealogy will represent Armenia in the ESC 2015 with the
song "Don't deny"
The song is about universal values and the message is one - "Happiness
is born when people are united and live in harmony with themselves,
their families, love relationships and so on. Generations are shifting
with time but the genealogy remains, thus the values of love and
peace are stable."
We are surprised to learn that some international reporters are trying
to politicize our entry not only slandering the name and reputation of
the Armenian Public TV Company but the Eurovision Song Contest itself.
This type of behavior is unacceptable; it is a distortion of
information. We expect your support for spreading out the right
information.
Eurovision is not a political podium; it is a unique cultural
platform where bridges are being built between countries, cultures,
traditions and artists. We cannot accept speculation of any political
matter in the fun Eurovision festival. The Eurovision Song Contest
is celebrating its 60th anniversary this year and it is a dream for
many artists first of all for its strict rules. Each participating
country is signing under those rules. No country can bring out any
political, commercial or other types of songs and performances that
might negatively influence ESC rating. We announce that there is no
political content in the song "Don't deny" and there is no need to
look for one.
We encourage media platforms to stay away from provocative
announcements and articles and stop distorting the facts and put
the ESC rules under doubt. Genealogy was created because of our
inspiration from this year's fantastic slogan. We have built a bridge
between the past and the present, Armenian genetics and world music,
Armenia and Eurovision.
