Numerous conservative personalities, including Italian politicans Roberto Vannacci (left) and Matteo Salvini (middle) alongside Turkish president Recep Tayyip Erdoğan (right) criticised the victory; particularly on Nemo's gender identity.

Multiple conservative personalities derided the victory; particularly due to Nemo's gender identity. Roberto Vannacci, a prominent conservative Italian politician, declared that "the world on the contrary is increasingly nauseating" in response to Nemo's victory and gender identity. [67] Matteo Salvini, a current Italian Deputy Prime Minister, stated to Libero Quotidiano that "I read that this winner won, but you can't say... that you don't consider yourself either he or she, you consider yourself non-binary, you don't recognize yourself in considering yourself man-woman. You cannot say 'he won' or 'she won,' because otherwise you are ruined." [68] Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, the current president of Turkey, indirectly referred to Nemo's victory to the contest and criticised Nemo and other Eurovision contestants for being "Trojan horses of social corruption", later adding, "we understand better how we made the right decision by keeping Türkiye out of this disgraceful competition for the past 12 years." [69] [70] Devlet Bahçeli, leader of the Turkish right-wing Nationalist Movement Party, stated that Nemo's dress they wore at the contest represented "confirmation of a shameful degeneration", adding that the contest had "turned into a propaganda platform for moral collapse." [71] Timo Posselt, writer for Die Zeit, wrote that the victory was politically driven by the LGBTQ+ community, stating that Nemo was able to display a non-binary flag while other "politically charged materials", such as a keffiyeh and other non-binary flags brought in by the audience weren't allowed in the arena. [72] Italian singer Amedeo Minghi stated that the contest now represented "Sodom and Gomorrah... a Swiss man in a skirt won, that's how it is now. Music, nothing. Lots of lights, lots of colors, music to see but certainly not to hear." [73]

Opinions on overshadowing by Israeli participation

The song's victory was debated on whether or not it had been overshadowed by Israeli participation in that year's contest in the midst of the Israel–Hamas war, a major source of controversy. La Vanguardia's María-Paz López stated that the victory "saved the day thanks to a song and a performer so excellent and deserving of the prize that their victory could not be considered controversial." [74] The same sentiment was shared by Davies and Rosa del Pino, who stated that the victory "was like a breath of fresh air for everyone after the most controversial and political edition of the contest’s history". [59] Süddeutsche Zeitung's Isabel Pfaff stated that the song was "a real balancing act... The contest has probably never been so [politically] charged... All the more fitting that in the end the only supposedly completely neutral country won - with a performance that itself demonstrated a great sense of balance." [75] In contrast, i's Shaun Curran stated that despite Nemo's calls for the contest to "continue to stand for peace", the controversy and its fallout would continue to still affect the contest. [76] Vanity Fair Italia's Valentina Colosimo, while praising Nemo's victory, stated that despite the win, "to shatter the utopia of a world where love and tolerance reign, which is then the founding dream of Eurovision, it takes very little... Politics cannot stay out of music, even if it is good intentions for a better world that win out." [77]
