While the tensions between Ukraine and Russia should be bigger news to us, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver lets us all in on an even lesser known facet of this ordeal by Americans: The Eurovision Song Contest. It’s European musical competition where countries face off to vie for the best song and Russia faced off the Ukraine. The details of that are amazing.

Also, Oliver does a pretty great job making fun of Putin’s new commemorative coin for Crimea. Watch it all here.
