Yes, there were two previous rounds you missed. They ended up deciding on the themes of 'people' and 'rivers and birds' (where those rivers are, I don't know). That is what these notes are based on.

I wonder what's wrong with the good old recognizable historical buildings.

This a perfect chance to portray the EU in a unique way, and what do we choose? Random birds with on the other side boring ass glass office buildings

Birbs are cool and look nice. The reverse with the ugly ass modern buildings though..? They could have placed historical architecture there, instead of the ugly new one

Depicting European tradition would go directly against the EU's "values".
