During the process of breakup of SFR Yugoslavia in 1991 , the former constituent republics of Croatia , Slovenia and Macedonia proclaimed independence and hence withdrew from '' Jugovizija '' , while the then-leaderships of Serbia and Montenegro agreed to maintain a close alliance . On 28 March 1992 , the republics that still ( at least formally ) constituted the fading and shrunken former Yugoslav federation took part in 1992 's '' Jugovizija '' held in Belgrade . It included artists not only from Serbia and Montenegro , but also from Bosnia and Herzegovina , although the latter declared independence on 1 March of that year . Among its candidates was Alma Čardžić . The winner of that pre-selection was " Ljubim te pesmama " performed by Extra Nena ( Snežana Berić ) from Serbia . Before that year 's ESC took place , on 28 April , a new federal state was formed consisting of Serbia and Montenegro called the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia which was represented by the previously mentioned Extra Nena in the Eurovision Song Contest 1992 held on 9 May . Yugoslavia was banned from participating in the Song Contest until 2004 due to UN sanctions during the Yugoslav Wars
