Israeli Eurovision hero says there's no place for boycott

None

Israel's winner of last year's Eurovision song contest says there is no place for boycott calls of this year's competition in Tel Aviv.

 

Netta Barzilai told a group of foreign journalists Monday that the Eurovision was established in the wake of World War II to heal a torn continent by being a "festival of light."

 

She says: "For people to boycott light is spreading darkness."
