        The SBU's reason for banning her was because she illegally entered Crimea, not because she performed there.

        Ukraine regards Crimea as its territory, temporarily under occupation by Russia, and it applies its law to the territory.

        The law applies only to the Ukrainian territory of Crimea - to go there, you have to pass through mainland Ukraine.

        Yes. But I also have no doubt that Russia chose their Eurovision entry very carefully.

        So if the Irish contestant performed in Crimea they would have been banned too? Of course not.

        if the Irish contestant went to Crimea from the territory of Russia, then yes, s/he'd face the same consequences.

        it may be anti-Russia and yet completely reasonable and legal at the same time. I guess that was the whole idea.
