Since 2010, TMC - the broadcaster of Monaco - is owned by TF1, the biggest competing channel of France 2, our broadcaster for Eurovision. With that being said, I believe their comeback is highly unlikely because TF1 probably wouldn't have anything to gain from taking part in an event they don't broadcast themselves.

Besides, Monaco faces all the impediments micro-states have (lack of interest, lack of artists, little chance to do well, etc.), so I wouldn't be holding my breath for them to return.

It's a shame because Monaco is a historical participant (like Luxembourg), but the situation doesn't work in their favour. :(
