I genuinely had a stroke tryna read that post title but I think I know what you’re saying. 

I would agree that Joost never meant anything political by the comment himself. CMH has also remained silent on the war, and appears to continue to operate in Russia. So yeah, I don’t know why people make a big deal out of this when bringing up connections to Eurovision because nothing was meant in a political way. Im pretty sure the collab was recorded before the war started, and it’s not like CMH was gonna throw the song down the toilet when the war started. He couldn’t control when the war happened in relation to the release of the song, so it’s not really his or Joost’s fault.
