📍Eurovision 2023 will not take place in Ukraine. The contest organizers approached the United Kingdom to discuss the possibility of holding the contest there since the representative of that country came second.
"The EBU would like to thank UA.Suspilne for their sincere cooperation, and dedication, and for the opportunity to explore all the scenarios within a few weeks following Kalush Orchestra's victory. It is very unfortunate for us that next year's competition cannot be held in Ukraine," the broadcaster said in a statement.
The organizers promise they will represent Ukraine in exhibitions and other interactives at next year's competition.
