Serbian President Vucic on Djokovic: “It is irresponsible not to get vaccinated”

He added that the unvaccinated should not be ‘hunted’

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said his government offered Djokovic support as part of ‘doing our job’ but expressed disagreement with Djokovic’s vaccine stance.

Vucic, in an interview with Serbian Public Television (RTS) said he believed it was necessary for the Serbian tennis star to get the jab calling Djokovic’s stance irresponsible.

“I think it is necessary for all people to be vaccinated, I have been vaccinated three times and I will be vaccinated a fourth time. I do not think it is quite responsible not to get vaccinated, but I do not belong to those people who will start a hunt against those who are not vaccinated because in that I find our own guilt. We allowed social networks to impose some absurd issues on us, which we could not fight,” Vucic said about the Djokovic saga.

He stressed that the political authorities have an obligation to help the citizens of Serbia when they have a problem abroad. “Our job is to help the people of Serbia, I am proud that with our involvement we were able to help one of the best athletes of all time,” Aleksandar Vucic said.

In another interview yesterday, the Prime Minister of Serbia Ana Brnabic commented on the violation of the quarantine by Novak Djokovic during his illness from coronavirus. “If it is found that Djokovic has violated the Serbian rules of isolation, he should explain it. I will consult the competent authorities and the health authorities that are responsible for the implementation of these regulations,” said Ana Brnabic.
