Intervision, a music contest initiated in 1965, is relaunched by Russia as a soft power tool to promote "traditional" values. The event, which excludes public voting and allows only performances in native languages, brings together countries such as Brazil, India, and China. Moscow criticizes Eurovision, promising a contest without "perversions." Organizers estimate that participants represent over half of the global population.
