Moldova has never participated in the Turkvision Song Contest. Moldova was expected to participate in the 2016 contest in Istanbul, Turkey, however the 2016 contest was subsequently cancelled due to the December 2016 Istanbul bombings. Moldova had selected the song "Yallah Yallah!", performed by Pelageya Stefoglo (then known as Polina Stefoglo), as their debut entry.[2] Moldova are expected to participate in the upcoming 2020 contest, held online in Istanbul. Pelageya Stefoglo was again internally selected as the Moldovan artist.[3]
The national broadcaster responsible for the selection process of Moldova's participants is unknown, save for the initials "KTRK".
History[edit]
