After today's aired footage, imho BTRC should be banned for good.
Preparing for JESC NF & showing tortured youth being forced to repent to frighten Belarusians in the same time is a friggen sur.
BTRC news presenter & 2 TV hosts quit (including the host of Belarusian NF)
I predict the EBU's reaction (if any) will be impotent.
Police beat a group of youth (guys & girls). And then police forced them to repent on video (guys had visibly beaten faces). BTRC showed that video in primetime news trying to scare and threaten Belarusians who haven't joined the protests.What happened?

Police/KGBthreatened"talked" to oppositional leader for 3 hours right inside the National Election Commission building (in the Head's office), after that she was forced to record a video and move out of the country immediately. BTRC didn't show the truth & fully backed Lukashenko up.
BTRC aired numerous false untrue statements and stories glorifying Lukashenko & bullying 6000 arrested people (who are being held in schools because there's no place left in police departments, lying on the floor in blood & being tortured Guantanamo-style).
BTRC didn't air the info about murdered protesters.
BTRC is totally silent about crimes against humanity commited by police (such as arresting/beating/wounding children, beating pregnant women & elderly people, kidnapping & torturing people right in police departments, using grenades against protesters, shooting random people execution-style).
The channel & its bosses are accomplices of the regime and promote its crimes & threaten Belarusian citizens.
Their 4 TV hosts and 2 radio hosts couldn't take it anymore and quit (even despite the risk for their health & freedom).
PBC announced the winners of the songwriting competition.
It's a joint collaboration of ADAM (composed our JESC 2018 entry) and Krut' (Vidbir 2020).
They created her Vidbir entry together, so I bet the song will be unusual like 99:
The song will be assigned to a finalist who submitted a cover.
