On January 4, Djokovic brought good news to the felt ball village when confirming that he would attend Australia expanded 2022. On his personal page, the world's number one tennis player said he was exempt from the Australian government. This also means that he does not need to vaccinate the Covid-19 vaccine to still play in the first Grand Slam of the year.
Recently, Djokovic took a flight to Melbourne to start the preparation process for Australia to expand. However, the world's number one player is facing great trouble when not allowed to enter Australia.
According to top sources such as AFP or Reuters, Djokovic was retained by the Australian border forces in a private room at the airport for 8 hours. The reason comes from the British visa that does not apply to cases of medical exemption (namely CIVIV-19 vaccine). Therefore, the world's number one player cannot pass the passport control gate at the airport.
Shortly thereafter, the Australian Border Guard (ABF) issued a notice to confirm the Djokovic information that was revoked with visa and will be expelled from the country.
“ABF confirmed Djokovic did not provide enough papers and did not meet the requirements to enter Australia. His visa was canceled.
All those who are not Australian citizens, with invalid visas or canceled visas will be expelled from Australia, ”ABF declared.
Meanwhile, Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison also voiced support for AFB's decision. He wrote on his personal page: “Djokovic's visas have been canceled. The rules are still rules, especially issues related to our borders.
No one is allowed to put themselves in a position higher than these rules. Border policies are very important, helping Australia have the lowest mortality rate of Covid-19 in the world. We will continue to be alert. “
In another development, President Serbia Aleksandar Vucic confirmed that he would do everything he could to help Djokovic play in Australia this year. Currently, he is working with the Australian Embassy in Belgrade to solve the problem. The sources also said Nole's lawyer is completing the application to appeal.
If it is impossible to solve visa problems, Djokovic will definitely be expelled from Australia, thereby missing an appointment with Australia to expand 2022. At this time, the world's No. 1 player has been brought to a isolated hotel in Melbourne to wait for the flight to Serbia.
