Russia

Cyprus has participated in the Asiavision Song Contest once since its debut in the second edition. The transcontinental nation initially intended to debut in 2019 with Lika Kosta and her song 'Lambada', however Russia shortly withdrew before the semi-final allocation draw for unknown reasons. The country stated that it would then send Lika Kosta again in 2020. The country's best result is 23rd in the grand final which it achieved in 2020
