Bosnia and Herzegovina, one of my favorite Eurovision countries, will be back after after a two year absence. Bosnia has never won the competition, but they are a well-liked country. In 2006, they came in third place with the song "Lejla" by Hari Mata Hari.
Bosnia joins a long list of nations who have confirmed they will take part next year: host country, Austria, as well as Montenegro, Belarus, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, France, UK, Germany, Greece, Belgium, FYR Macedonia, Switzerland, Portugal, Malta, Cyprus, Sweden, Iceland, Norway, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, and The Netherlands.
Turkey, Monaco, Luxembourg, Andorra, Slovakia, and Czech Republic will be absent from the competition.
