As a reminder, the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) criticized the Dutch public broadcaster Avrotros' version of events regarding the disqualification of the Dutch participant. Avrotros stated that the incident was allegedly caused by a "threatening movement" towards a woman, but the rapper did not touch her. However, the EBU protests, and witnesses say that there was a quarrel between them, which resulted in property damage.
