Following the news, César Vallejo had the following to say:

“We have learned a lot. It’s time to convert all that experience into tangible goals and impactful entries. We will work hard, but we will show respect and care towards the artists, so that the road to Eurovision is an enriching experience with satisfactory results for everyone.”
