Ukraine's Vidbir, the selection for Malmö, was on the 3rd of February but because a technical problem with the voting app the results came a day later.
Teresa & Maria by alyona alyona (no capitals) and Jerry Heil was declared the winner and the entry for Malmö.

The song is written by Aliona Savranenko (Альо́на Савране́нко = alyona alyona), Yana Shemayeva (Я́на Шема́єва = Jerry Heil)  Anton Chilibi and Ivan Klymenko.
It was released as a digital single on January 11.
The song is in Ukrainian with one (repeated) line in English. 

Jerry Heil entered the Ukrainian selection before:
2020 Vegan (6th place)
2023 When God shut the door (3rd) (Vidbir was held in december 2022)
For songwriter Ivan Klymenko Teresa & Maria is the 6th Vidbir entry. His most known being Stefania. That one finished 2nd in the Vidbir selection but went on to win the Turin Eurovision in 2022. But that's another story.
