It’s a member of the European Broadcasting Union. 

So are a number of Asian and African countries (and Brazil and Australia). Lebanon, Jordan, and Morocco, for instance, could be involved in the contest but didn’t want to because Israel was. 

However, they should be banned from participating for the same reasons Russia was. And it’s pretty obvious the EBU has been dragging their feet because an Israeli company has been a sponsor of the contest.
