One of the most successful countries is back in the competition after a one year break which was due to financial difficulties.

It has been announced today that the TV station NTU will be working along with a bigger channel to make the participation possible, and that Ukraine will thus be present in the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest, which will be held in the Globen Arena in Stockholm.

Ukraine last took part last year in Copenhagen, when Mariya Yaremchuk performed “Tick Tock”, and achieved a place in the top 10, finishing 6th.
