Representing the Basque people this flag does not deserve to be banned but instead celebrated
WTF why would they do this? And equating it to terrorism is just wrong. Basques deserve to have their own autonomous state and be able to have their flag represent their people wherever they watn.
How rude to oppress a country as a continent for a few extremist actions.
Please allow this flag to be flown/displayed.
If i haven't heard about it....its probably not bad enough to ban

Ridiculous to ban the ikurrina. Its for culture not politics. Eurovision should be about music and unity not banning flags from peaceful regions
