ArmInfo. Armenian Public Television has lodged a complaint against
Azerbaijan over violation of Eurovision regulations.

Armenian Public Television (APT) complains that the part of the
screen with the number for viewers in Azerbaijan to call and vote
for the Armenian entry, Jan, Jan by Anush and Inga Arshakyans, was
obscured. This is a gross violation of the Eurovision regulations
and may result in fining or disqualifying Azerbaijan.

To recall, Armenia finished the 10th at Eurovision final in Moscow on
May 16. Norway and the song Fairytale, performed by Alexander Rybak,
proved to be the runaway winner. Yohanna from Iceland was second
with her song Is it True? Aysel and Arash from Azerbaijan took the
3rd place.
