Djokovic under fire for comment on Serbia tension

Tensions between Kosovo and Serbia have taken place for quite a long time. Tensions rose this year, and the country was torn apart once again. The problems of the two regions affected Djokovic as well. Wanting to show his concern for his country, he wrote, “Kosovo is the heart of Serbia. Stop violence,” on the camera after his third-round victory.

His comment did not settle well with the public. Kosovo’s tennis federation did not take his words kindly and lashed out at him. Officials said that his words only served to raise the tension between Serbia and Kosovo. Djokovic is someone who has suffered due to the war himself during his childhood, and the tragedies only serve to remind him of past issues. However, he is doing his best to raise awareness of the matter as much as he can.
