Albanian wrestler Chermen Valiev has been declared European champion in the 74kg weight class, but the presentation of his medal turned into a scandal.
During the medal presentation, the vice-president of the World Federation and the head of the Russian Federation, Mikhail Mamiashvili, used force and, according to the NCO, called Chermen Valiev a traitor.
Regarding this event on the "Opinion" show on TV Klan, Fidel Ylli, President of the National Council of Alcoholics, stated that his reaction was a result of alcohol consumption, as according to him there could be no other explanation.
Fidel Ylli, among other things, emphasizes that the gesture is very ugly, and the NAC has issued a statement to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to notify the entire diplomatic corps as well as all international European and world institutions that measures be taken against him.
Blendi Fevziu: What happened to Valiev?
Fidel Ylli: It's not like anything happened. Valiev honored our flag, Albania, himself. He had a spectacular match with one of the best wrestlers of the Russian Republic in the final, but this person who is the president of the Russian Wrestling Federation, at the same time the vice-president of the World Federation, this is one of the best wrestlers of Russia. He is a three-time world champion and three-time European champion, but this is not the first time. He was also accused in 2004 of pressuring a judge that a Russian wrestler at the Athens Olympic Games should win the match.
Blendi Fevziu: Mr. Ylli, did you get more reaction because Valiev defeated the Russian wrestler who was part of his Federation, or is it because Valiev represents Albania and not Russia?
Fidel Ylli: First of all, the President of the Russian Federation is not Russian, but is from Georgia. He represented the Soviet Union and not Russia, and if it is a matter of traitor, he is the one who refused to go to Georgia, but went to Russia. But he does not have that. He has a craving for brandy, because he drinks a little alcohol, because that gesture cannot be explained otherwise.
Blendi Fevziu: I'm sorry, but he's the vice president of the World Wrestling Federation, we're not talking about a street drunk.
Fidel Ylli: The gesture is very ugly, it is condemned. We have issued a statement and sent it to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to inform the entire diplomatic corps. All international, European and world institutions so that measures can be taken against him.
