Sometimes it would be better to silence those who want to help you.
Novak Djokovic, entangled in his worries with the Australian administration should have asked his father to turn his tongue 7 times in his mouth before speaking.
Because it is not certain that his words plead his cause at the level of public opinion.
This Thursday, Srdjan Djokovic did not go by four symbols to help his champion son to whom Australia refuses his entry into its territory since the number 1 does not provide any proof of his vaccination. During a rally in support of his son organized in front of the country's Assembly in Belgrade, Srdjan Djokovic compared Novak… to Christ on the cross.
“Jesus was crucified on the cross and everything was done to him,” he claims.
But he's still alive with us now.
Now Novak is being crucified, they are doing everything to him.
"In front of a crowd that came to listen to the Djokovic family (the brother and mother of the world No. 1 also spoke), the star's father continued:"
Nole
(Djokovic's nickname) is the heart of Serbia, our pride.
Our pride they want to bring to their knees, but they will not succeed!
Serbs, and all the other libertarian nations of the world, the time has come to stop being oppressed!
".
"Novak will become a leader of the free world"
Papa Djokovic, very present in the Serbian media since the beginning of the affair, adds a layer: “My son, he continues, is in captivity but he has never been so free. Novak will become a symbol and a leader of the free world, the leader of oppressed countries and peoples. Even a small heroic country like Serbia can have the greatest athlete of all time. You may be put in jail today or tomorrow, but the truth always finds its way. Novak fights for the equality of all the peoples of the planet. "
Before concluding, Djokovic's father spoke of the conditions of detention of his son, who is expected to remain stranded in a hotel for refugees until Monday. “My son was taken to a migrant hotel in a dirty room with no personal effects. He was told they would be returned to him when he returned to Europe. He is treated like a criminal even though he is a healthy, decent man and a sportsman who has never put anyone's life in danger. He did not commit any federal or legal offenses. "
