Ukraine places third at Junior Eurovision 2024

According to Artem, he dreamed of representing Ukraine because he wanted to hear in Europe and worldwide that people in Ukraine are now being deprived of their homes.

"And a home is the most important thing in life, something you can never give away, and that's why we are fighting for it now," the singer said.

He is now 12 years old and has been singing since he was three years old and performing on stage since he was four.
