Radio International had the pleasure to meet Poli Genova at the OGAE Germany Annual Convention 2024 in January and did an interview you can hear on this week's edition of Radio International.      Eurovision Spotlight - The History of Switzerland at the Eurovision Song Contest: The Eurovision Song Contest 2024 was won by Nemo who represented Switzerland in Malmoe, Sweden this year with the song "The Code".
