Fans say Australia’s visa denial a witch-hunt, while Belgrade starts to distance itself from player’s anti-vaccine stance

Novak Djokovic’s visa cancelled: how the controversy unfolded – video

Some Belgrade residents suggested on Friday that Djokovic had only himself to blame. “Their country, their rules,” said one resident, Jovo Tadic. “If Australia tells you to get vaccinated to enter, do it, or face problems.” Some suggested Djokovic had become a political pawn in the run-up to Australian election in May. “Australians are dragging him around like an old rag. They are ready to burn the world’s No 1 because of politics,” said Aleksandar Petrovic.

Novak should be allow to play with an exemption. And there are plenty of people who have been bullied that should be allowed exemptions and to work again. Drop these ludicrous mandates. When will these guys leave our lovely country? The 'Don't you know who I am?' defence.
