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

When will the do gooders of the world protest someone being blocked from Ukraine simply because of the place they came from.

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.
-
Disagree. You know this is an anti Russia thing, and it's all so childish.
-
it may be anti-Russia and yet completely reasonable and legal at the same time. I guess that was the whole idea.
