In 2013, Kosovo's first entry at Türkvizyon, Ergin Karahasan, qualified to the grand final were the finished in 12th place with a score of 151 points. Kosovo withdrew from the 2014 contest because the country is not recognised by Russia, therefore entrance would have been denied. Instead, Albania entered the contest.
