Ukraine has participated in the Eurovision Song Contest four times, debuting in 2003 (see ESC2003) with a 14th place finish for the popular singer Oleksandr Ponomaryov. The country won in their second year of Eurovision being represented by the famous singer Ruslana (see ESC2004), and finished in 20th place in the 2005 contest, for which the Ukrainian capital, Kiev, was the host. Ukraine has usually always been awarded the 12 points from Portugal, due to the high number of Ukrainian immigrants in Portugal.
