Russia participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2000, held on 13 May 2000 at the Globe Arena in Stockholm, Sweden. Public Russian Television (ORT) returned to the Eurovision Song Contest after a two-year absence following their relegation in 1998. ORT first announced that the Russian entry for the 2000 contest would be chosen through a televised national final, however, they later opted to choose the nation's representative internally by jury. The selected song was "Solo", written by Andrew Lane and Brandon Barnes and performed by Alsou.
Prior to the contest, the entry was promoted by a music video and live performances in Riga, Tallinn and Saint Petersburg. Russia performed ninth out of the 24 countries competing in the contest and finished in second place, receiving 155 points and full 12-point marks from four countries. This marked the nation's highest placement in the contest at that time.
