Following a 2-year hiatus, Bosnia & Herzegovina is planning to participate in the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest, according to their broadcaster BHRT.
Their return will be welcomed by many Eurovision fans following Bosnia & Herzegovina’s withdrawal in 2013 & 2014 due to financial reason and we look forward to hearing more news surrounding their selection process as it becomes available.
Several more countries have now announced their participation in Vienna, with Montenegro, Latvia and Belarus all confirming their participation.
The Montenegrin broadcaster, RTCG, confirmed their intention to participate next year, and will most likely choose their act via an internal selection.
The Latvian news was announced by their broadcaster LTV, although details of their selection have not yet been announced.
BTRC, the Belarussian broadcaster announced their participation and currently have teams of people evaluating the format it will use to select their 2015 entry.

Azerbaijan will be hoping to improve on their performance following their 22nd placing in the 2014 contest with Dilara Kasimova, which was their lowest placing to date. In 2013 they finished in 2nd place, whilst placing 4th in 2012 and of course winning in 2011 with Running Scared.
