Last year's Eurovision winner has made a massive statement: Nemo, the Swiss singer-rapper who triumphed in 2024, announced on 11 December that they will return the trophy to the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). They said this decision, shared on their Instagram account, is a sign of protest over the continued participation of Israel in the annual international singing contest.

The singer-rapper, who won the award for their performance of the operatic rap and rock song The Code, said in their post that despite their immense gratitude for every opportunity that they got from the contest, they felt that the trophy no longer belongs on their shelf.
