YEREVAN, DECEMBER 12, NOYAN TAPAN. The Junior Eurovision - 2007
international song contest went off in exclusively unbiassed
conditions, and it was impossible to change or to falsify any vote
there. Diana Mnatsakanian, the Head of the Foreign Relations Department
of the Public TV and Radio Company, said at the December 12 press
conference. In her words, the Gigame German specialized organization
calculating votes and points accurately registered all votes sent to
country-participants of the contest, then they were sent by fax to
the contest commission.
According to Armen Amirian, the Director of Public Radio, the song
"Dream" of Arevik ensemble "warmed the hearts of Europeans and European
coldness" in the Junior Eurovision - 2007 contest held on December
8 in Rotterdam, the Netherlands. According to him, the opinion about
the song had been formed before the contest, as according to studies
of two bookmaking companies, either Armenia or the Ukraine was to
take the first place among 17 countries.
The Director of Public Radio is convinced that in this case Armenia's
taking the first place was not so significant, as the song received
a warm welcome.
The song "Dream" had become everybody's favorite song. This time it
gained 12 points for seven times and the Armenian flag waved in the
concert hall for seven times.
A. Amirian surely said that in all following years Armenia will return
from Junior Eurovision with a victory, as the first participation
surpassed all expectations and they have no right to retreat any
longer.
In response to journalists' question of whether agitation hampered
the children to perform the song, Marianna Javakhian, the author and
performer of the "Dream" answered: "All performers were agitated. The
hall was incredibly crowded, there were Armenian flags everywhere,
it was impossible not to be agitated."
It should be mentioned that the Public TV and Radio Company starts
preparing for the Junior Eurovision - 2008 contest, which will be
held in Cyprus.
