Natalia Barbu (Moldova 2007) declared for the local press that participating two times in a row is very risky, that`s why she will not compete in 2008 Moldovan national selection. Regarding this year Eurovision national selection Natalia Barbu has some adivices for TRM (Tele Radio Moldova - the Moldovan broadcaster): "I recommend them to give the winner artist financial support and not to return the money back after the competition", said Natalia. She added that this issue was a big stress for her: "Instead of focusing on song and show, I was seeking for money as I could get to Helsinki. Then TRM should focus seriously on the european tour, as they could have popularity regarding the Eurovison countries", concluded Natalia.
For the Moldovan national selection TRM allows foreign composers and artists, but the they should be included only in backing vocals or dancers and they should not be more than two.TRM has forbidden the artists to bring on stage as show animals.
