This is the second award that the Euronews Albania journalist has been awarded this year and he undoubtedly feels honored.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was a surprise that Infoweb Media, Elbasan Municipality, Elbasan District Council chose me for the journalist of the year. This cup was taken by me, is it my name, but obviously it also has the name of Olti Allmeta, the operator I was with in Israel. And of course it belongs to all the staff of Euronews for those difficult days that we all went through. It is a very great assessment when it is given by fellow journalists and it is one of the most beautiful awards that a journalist can receive&#8221;, said Samarxhiu.<\/p>\n<p>In Elbasan, in addition to the journalist of the year, at the ceremony, well-known figures and personalities were also appreciated at the national level, and not only.
