The Managеment Board of the Bulgarian National Television (BNT) has decided that the public service broadcaster shall not take part in this year's international Eurovision Song Contest, to take place in Tel Aviv in mid-May 2019.
The decision is part of the package of measures undertaken by the management to optimize public spending.
