The Albanian weightlifter Briken calja wrote the history at the European Weightlifting Championships in Romania by wining three Golden Medals for a weight of up to 69 kg.
He won the fist medal in the snatch style with a weight of 146 kg, than added two more golden medals to his triumph, in the clean and jerk style and dual race.
Calja dedicated this historic victory to his family and every Albanian citizen. His success is very positive news for the Albanian weightlifting and serves for image improvement after the problems encountered recently by Romela Begaj and Evangjeli Veli who resulted positive in anti-dope tests.
