Ya nauchu tebya (I'll Teach You)

"Ya nauchu tebya (I'll Teach You)" (Russian: Я научу тебя) is a song by Belarusian band Galasy ZMesta.

On 9 March 2021, Belarusian broadcaster BTRC announced that Galasy ZMesta would represent Belarus in the 2021 contest with the song "Ya nauchu tebya".

Within hours of its release, a Change.org petition was started requesting Belarus' disqualification from Eurovision 2021 due to lyrics which were interpreted as celebrating "political oppression and slavery".

The EBU issued a statement saying: "It was concluded that the new submission was also in breach of the rules of the competition that ensure the Contest is not instrumentalized or brought into disrepute.

As BTRC have failed to submit an eligible entry within the extended deadline, regrettably, Belarus will not be participating in the 65th Eurovision Song Contest in May".
