It is worth noting that the competition's music producer, Jamala, has already made a statement on this matter.
According to her, it was indeed a very difficult process and the final choice — the formation of the shortlist for the National Selection-2026.
Ahead is the audience vote. And I would like to ask everyone not to neglect it, because the fate of six artists is being decided. Therefore, it is very important that the audience be active and vote for their favorites.
