I'm not sure what statement the German contestant was making:

The winner was Ukraine, represented by Jamala singing 1944. The song was inspired by stories told to her about the deportation of the Tatars from Crimea under Stalin:



Australia, apparently considered a part of Europe for the purposes of this contest, placed second.
