Armenia–Azerbaijan relations in the Eurovision Song Contest

The Public Television Company of Armenia (AMPTV) has represented Armenia in the Eurovision Song Contest since 2006, while İctimai Television (İTV) has represented Azerbaijan since 2008. The conflict between the two countries over the region of Nagorno-Karabakh, which is considered a de jure part of Azerbaijan by the United Nations, but had been wholly or partially under control of the Armenia-backed de facto Republic of Artsakh between 1993 and 2023, has affected their participation in the contest on several occasions.
