Interesting part: "In 2009, it was reported that the 43 Azerbaijanis who texted in votes for Armenia in that year’s contest were summoned to the National Security Ministry to explain their actions".

I'm surprised that this country was allowed to stay in the EBU after such a behavior. Really shocking.

Lebanon was more or less thrown out of the competition for not playing by the rules (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lebanon_in_the_Eurovision_Song...), so I'm surprised the EBU did not do the same here.
