Political scandal surrounding the song

The song takes off in massdeporteringen of a quarter of a million Tatars from the Crimea during World War II, but also directs a strong political message about the country’s situation today.
During the week, reacted more in social media that the song would be about the situation between Ukraine and Russia, since Russia took control of the Crimean peninsula two years ago.
But Jamala denied that the song would have a political message about the situation going on on the Crimean Peninsula right now, and continued to argue that it’s her family history .
– it’s about my great-grandmother, this performance tonight was completely dedicated to her and to all the Tatars and Ukrainians in my life. It was for my country, she says.
“very painful”
Jamala has previously reported on family history.
– My great-grandmother was forced to leave his country in train where they neither received food or water. I sing this song to my family history. I have to sing again and again, because it still makes a lot of pain, she told the BBC.
Russian politicians and the Crimean authorities reacted to the song’s content when it became clear that it would compete and stated that it spread a false picture of history. The EBU has in turn approved the song, saying that it does not violate any contest rules, saying that songs should not have political messages.
