esctoday.com reports:

Back on August 8th, esctoday.com reported that Spain would be withdrawing from the 2007 Junior Eurovision Song Contest after the new TVE Director, Javier Pons, claimed that the "Junior Eurovision promotes stereotypes we do not share". Today, esctoday.com has learned that there has been no official withdrawal lodged with the EBU.

esctoday.com has contacted the EBU and TVE to seek clarification on the situation. Today, we were told by Svante Stockselius that: "we have not yet received any official withdrawal from TVE Spain.
