       A politician from the small nationalistic Svoboda party...Yury Sirotnyuk...unleashed a racist controversy over Kiev's representative in the Eurovision song contest.
      "The show's millions of viewers will see Ukraine represented by someone who does not belong to our race, and they will think Ukraine is located somewhere in Africa," he observed.
      Beautiful pop singer Gaitana, 32, was selected by a Saturday vote to sing 'Be my Guest'...at the wildly popular Eurovision contest in May.
