Enter Georgia !Bosnia & Herzegovina withdraw from JESC


Georgia's participation in this year's Junior Eurovision Song Contest can be considered as a lucky break for the new Eurovision enthusiast country as it was made possible by the withdrawal of Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Originally, there had been 19 applications for this year's JESC in Rotterdam with Georgia being the 19th. As the rules of this year's contest dictate that a maximum of 18 countries participate, Georgia was excluded. But a sudden withdrawal of Bosnia & Herzegovina made it possible for them to take part after all.

The final list of participants is as follows (in alphabetical order):

1. Armenia (ARMTV)
2. Belarus (BTRC)
3. Belgium (VRT)
4. Bulgaria (BNT)
5. Cyprus (CyBC)
6. FYR Macedonia (MKRTV)
7. Georgia (GPB)
8. Greece (ERT)
9. Lithuania (LRT)
10. Malta (MTPBS)
11. The Netherlands (AVRO)
12. Portugal (RTP)
13. Romania (TVR)
14. Russia (RTR)
15. Serbia (RTS)
16. Spain (TVE)
17. Sweden (TV4)
18. Ukraine (NTU)
