The Serbian president went on social media to offer his support for the world’s number one tennis player
Getty Novak Djokovic. World number one Novak Djokovic’s problem seems to have no end. This time, the president of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, took action on the matter and accused the Australian authorities of “mistreating and humiliating” the tennis player, whose visa to enter the country was revoked for the second time in a row. With Vucic getting involved, things now seem to be getting into political and diplomatic levels as the Serbian president took matters to his social media account. Through a video posted on his official Instagram network, the president stated: “Why do you mistreat him and why do you humiliate him, not only him but also his family and an entire free and proud nation?” As is known, in Australia it is required that to enter the country you must have the complete schedule of the coronavirus vaccine, except in the case of Sputnik V, since for now it is not approved by the WHO. In the case of Djokovic, an anti-vaccine crusader, he did not inoculate himself against Covid, but argued that he had been infected less than a month ago to justify his admission. A post shared by Aleksandar Vučić (@buducnostsrbijeav) Given this, Vucic questioned whether the measures being taken against the tennis player are really to “flatter public opinion” and win points before the elections that are expected in the country this year. In addition, he denounced that attacks and pressure on the athletes have had a great echo for “unknown” reasons.
