I wonder about the one you didn't like

Sad to not see Ukraine in the line-up next year...it will feel so weird when you are expecting an another good ukrainian entry...and it isn't there.
Hope they manage to come back in 2016!

I don't like Ukrainian entries very much, but still it's sad. Their ESC history is not excessively long, but rich. It's a big sorrow that our Eastern neighbours won't participate in Vienna.

I liked most of their ESC-entries and it´s very sad Ukraine won´t participate in Vienna. I hope they´ll come back to Eurovision as soon as possible.

It's so sad! Eurovision isn't the same without Ukraine! 1

Surely this flies in the face of the whole "Building Bridges" sentiment?

Sweet people from 2010

Such a shame that Ukraine wont be in Vienna. Look at it this way though, it free's up a slot in the qualifiers for another less successful country, who may not otherwise get in.

Financially NTU are indeed struggling especially the Government after the costs of the War in the East and Turmoil since November.

However they will take part in JESC 2014 but I think we can see Ukraine back soon especially a return for 2016

It's a pity Ukraine's not taking part in this contest. I hope they come back next year

Ukraine withdraws from Eurovision 2015 | ESCunited.com

 

[Sammy]

That's too bad. Hopefully we'll see them in 2016.

 

[yulichka]

I hope we will be back only when the war is over, it is unacceptable to have any song contests when your people die.

 

[FoxOfShadows]

So upset The Wikipedia map just doesn't look right now...

My favorite ESC country ever withdraws 1

It's understandable though and probably the most "respectful" decision to do while there's war, but it's still a very sad day for Eurovision

 

[FilipFromSweden]

This is all Russias fault! How am I going to watch a Eurovision without Ukraine? They always give something to the competition, Tick Tock was awesome.

 

[AGRush]

this is very bad .. Ukraine is one of my favorite countries in the competition

Украинцы, ЛЮБЛЮ вас, жду вас на конкурсе, молюсь за вас :*

Aww, sad but expected.
