Дорогие друзья! Хотим выразить вам огромную благодарность за поддержку в этот трудный для всех фанатов и участников Евровидения день. Европейскому вещательному союзу пришлось принять сложное решение о переносе конкурса на 2021 год. Мы надеемся, что всем участникам этого года дадут возможность принять участие в следующем. Будет ли это с новыми песнями или же нет – это уже другой вопрос, в любом случае, мы настроены позитивно, и обещаем, что будем творить на полную в ближайшее время! ⠀ Dear friends! We want to thank everybody for your amazing support in this hard day for every Eurovision fan and participant. EBU had to make a difficult choice to postpone the contest till 2021. We hope that every artist who was chosen to represent their country this year will make it to the next Eurovision. It’s currently unknown if the songs are gonna be changed or not. Anyway, we are looking forward to writing and producing new songs ASAP! #esc2020 #eurovision #valmusic #davidna #belarus #openup

VAL won Belarus’ national selection with the song “Da Vidna”. The European Broadcasting Union stated that the reference group and the participating broadcasters will later make a decision on if the selected artists will be able to perform their songs in next year’s contest.
