there's lots of them here in belgrade the butter. as i said, they're the 1st information was that he will travel to spain to marbella, where his family was. he is in belgrade. we don't know how long she's gonna stay here. we don't know his agenda. the things we know is that he is, are back from australia where his visa was twice cancelled by the austrian government. the serbian president has condemned to dead decision on the tallest building here in belgrade, there was a big message for him, a welcome message. so the point is, i think that jock, which wants to feel are, are welcomed, hearing serbia, after everything he went through and we will see his schedule. and if he will address the journalist here in belgrade, thank you for that update. milan buske of each line from abound grade airport, where novak choke of h a tennis tar has just to write, leasing the u. k. of arrested to teenagers in the city of manchester in connection with saddle siege ada synagogue, m u. s. data, texas. and british national was shot dead after taking 4 pe

now, by interest, a fairy, he is a freelance journalist in belgrade. welcome to d w. so tell us how people and serbia have responded to date. another joke of which is deportation. yeah, it's of course, unbelievable for most of serbs that all this happened. this joker, which i see is the most successful, served in sports land ever in history and all the sports, and also of people were expecting him to play in when australian open about the 1st reactions came from his family of his father and his family in the statement, they said that they hoped that our sports would win, but obviously politics when or over all this issue. and this is always uh, mostly seen by most of serviceable. don't find the reason why i, australia of denied the visa and for a joker, which what we did here in our peace from survey as president. he's calling the case a political witch hunt, and many other people. as you mentioned, keep saying this was political, but in joke of it is not a politician. so what do you think the president and serbs mean by this? well, of the president said also before t

belgrade's novak tennis centre is where you will find the next generation of champions. klara vaja is targeting victory at wimbledon 2024, when she will be 18. she credits novak djokovic for supporting her development at his tennis centre, and she says she was happy to return the favour at the family rally. i think he deserves all of that, and he deserves our support. he is our man, he is playing for our country. so even if we can't help that much, we are there to support him at least. belgrade's main coronavirus vaccination centre could do with a similar level of support. serbia's overall vaccination rate is languishing below 50%, and novak djokovic's ambivalent stance towards inoculation hasn't helped, so not all serbians sympathise with his current situation. translation: i would say that there are some double standards, as on the one hand we are constantly being told that we should get vaccinated, and then when it comes to a person like novak djokovic, we see that there are exceptions. at least the church has given its blessing. patriarch porfirije said that millions

but he was greeted at belgrade airport as a hero. his fans and serbia believe he has been mistreated by the australian government. after organizes of the australian open said he was allowed to come because of a covey infection in december. this is a sharing what it is, the lower kula fairly obvious of the say what the rope has come to handle that you need the thought before to do something to pick the vaccine. i myself election. i did a double job, but i think that no one should be forced to do something. he was a judge, the sentence was his freedom of choice and speech. on the other side of the world, the australian open dot and away without it's 9 times champion, winds for the likes of rafa, no doubt. and naomi osaka meant it was almost business as usual for spectators. you our and i think a very highly anticipated decision making. i think it was kind of greg holiday long . that's great. that would kind of put it behind us. the best project, which is great as player. i'm just glad the focus is now on what we're all he full . yet th

he is enormously popular in serbia and in belgrade in particular. they are holding rallies every day in front of the national assembly and his family say they will keep on doing that until the sun is released from his corner teen hotel in melbourne. —— quarantine hotel and till they son is released. this isn't the kind of rally that is normally associated with the world's best male tennis player, but for supporters of novak djokovic, these are anything but normal times. this event outside serbia's national assembly reflects the widely felt outrage about their champion�*s plight. instead of setting up a warm welcome for the nine—times australian open winner, the host nation found fault with his papers. that has left novak djokovic cooling his heels in quarantine instead of warming up for the tournament. these people are showing their support for serbia's number one sporting star. they have come to express their disapproval for what is happening to him in australia and to listen to the family of novak djokovic explain how they feel about their

dan roan, bbc news, belgrade. well as you heard there in dan roan�*s report, novak djokovic might also struggle to play in future tennis tournaments unless he is vaccinated. 0nly last week the french sports minister, roxana maracineanu was saying that unvaccinated athletes may be accommodated by being in bubbles. but now a new law has forced her to reverse that position. as soon as the law is enacted, the law that has just been voted on, to practise 1's profession, orto voted on, to practise 1's profession, or to come for pleasure to a sports facility one will have to present a vaccination certificate. this will apply to people who live and do this on a daily basis in front but also to foreigners who come to our territory on holiday or for who come to our territory on holiday orfor a major who come to our territory on holiday or for a major sports competition. north korea tested tactical guided missiles on monday according to the country's state media. neighbouring countries detected two short—range ballistic

whether he comes back here to belgrade. the way that this is being framed in other places is that novak djokovic is this anti-vaxxer, but that is not the way that people see it here. even from novak djokovic's statement that he just put out, he made clear that he is uncomfortable with the focus being on him. and perhaps by extension he is also uncomfortable with the fact that he's been framed in this way. i spoke to one of his friends and former teammates the other day who said, look, maybe novak will get the vaccine in the future in order to get into other tournaments, but that's not what this is about today. >> it will be interesting as it's just in the morning there, almost 9:15 in belgrade. no doubt you'll get more reaction you can bring to us, scott. >>> changing gears to our other breaking news story at cnn. a hostage standoff at a north texas synagogue is now over with all hostages rescued and the attacker dead. the crisis began when the assailant stormed the congregation beth israel in colleyville on saturday. it wa

earlier i spoke with aleksandar miladinovic, from bbc serbian in belgrade. he told me about the reaction from djokovic�*s family. the family stated its disappointment with the fact that djokovic has to return from melbourne and was extradited, basically, without his visa. the family also said it is all about politics and other interests, as they said in their written statement. "it is a different approach than what we have seen the past days." when the family was out and about speaking at the press conference, in downtown belgrade today, they spoke to the public through a written statement. and we have heard a little bit of the political reaction from president aleksandar vucic in shaimaa�*s report a moment ago. what other political reaction has there been? it is pretty much unanimous here in belgrade that what happened to novak djokovic in australia is purely a political matter, not a matter of health or vaccination. what i have also heard is that serbia was unjustifiably labelled as the anti—vax country. the president said the australian lawyers used

earlier i spoke to our balkans correspondent, guy delauney, who was in the serbian captial, belgrade. they were out on friday afternoon, christmas day here in serbia and people instead of spending christmas afternoon walking the dog hundreds of them turned up in front of the national assembly in belgrade to join the djokovic family in showing their support for novak djokovic. and they were tying neon yellow tennis balls around a sign which says, "novak, you are our heart," so in lieu of yellow ribbons he got yellow tennis balls instead. so they were doing that yesterday. and then this morning the papers of course are full of this idea that novak might be able to prove that he had covid at a particular time, which should have given him an exemption in terms of entering australia. and they have pictures of a basketball match he attended in belgrade on the 14th of december hugging a player from barcelona who later tested positive for coronavirus, saying, look, this is the moment when novak might have contracted coronavirus. so there is a lot of hope and optimistic messaging going on,ful

latest pictures from a pro joke of which protest taking place in the middle of the serbian capital belgrade. of course, that's his home town. pretty much we had strong words from his father, jocko, bitch, senior yesterday, widely reported around the world where his father essentially said that his son is being, and i quote, directly is being crucified by the australian authorities. of course, his critics would say, well, he's actually acting like a baby because he must have known at some level that his paperwork wouldn't stand up to express inspection. although his supporters say he did exactly what he was supposed to do when he was moving forward online either he or his people because of course he's, he's a big brand, he's a big industry. he will have people maybe who do this kind of thing for him. when they filled in the relevant paperwork online to go for that exemption, submitted it and then it came back as being authorized at some point during that process, he knows and all the supporters of his there in belgrade know that that then generated a red flag someplace at the customs and imm

scott mclean now to you in belgrade. this is resonating obviously, as you pointed out before, he's a national hero there. but really extraordinary now to actually have the president of the country weighing in. >> reporter: yeah, that's right. and the president made it abundantly clear if you mess with novak djokovic you are messing with all of serbia, and the serbian people. after originally telling us, his office telling us that he wasn't going to comment, the president came out with a statement, a taped statement, later in the afternoon. and that statement is not going to do much for serbian/australian relations by any stretch. he said that the pressures and the attacks on novak djokovic had reached such a fever pitch that he had to come out and say something. and he really framed it as a moral question for australia. that if they didn't want him in the country, why did they issue him a visa in the first place. now, the president says his issue is not with the australian people. it is not even with the australian court

belgrade's main coronavirus vaccination centre could do with a similar level of support. serbia's overall vaccination rate is languishing below 50% and novak djokovic's ambivalent stance towards vaccination has not helped, so not all serbians sympathise with his current situation. translation: | would say - there are some double standards, as on the one hand, we are constantly being told that we should get vaccinated and then, when it comes to a person like novak djokovic, we see that there are exceptions. at least the church has given its blessing. here they've said millions of orthodox serbs would remember novak djokovic in their christmas prayers and they will be hoping monday's judgment in melbourne will bring deliverance for their sporting icon. a baby boy separated from his parents during the chaotic american evacuation of afghanistan in august last year, has been reunited with relatives. sohail ahmadi, only two months old at the time, was handed to a us soldier as his parents struggled to get into the airport. while most of the family managed to fly out of the coun
