By dint of rubbing shoulders with Novak Djokovic from afar, we end up knowing him a little. His stubbornness, which sometimes plays tricks on him, left no doubt that he would never change his mind about his controversial position on Kosovo’s place in the Balkans. Words that earned him the reproaches of Amélie Oudéa-Castéra.
“I could say it again, but I won’t. A lot of people don’t agree, but me, that’s what I think,” said the Serb after his second round victory at Roland-Garros, against Marton Fucsovics.
” No comment “
As for his response to the criticisms of Minister Amélie Oudéa-Castéra according to whom his remarks on Kosovo “heart of Serbia” were “inappropriate”, Djokovic simply dropped a “no comment”.
Monday, after his victory in the first round at Roland-Garros, he was invited like all the winners to write a word on the lens of one of the cameras on the court. He then wrote “Kosovo is the heart of Serbia. Stop the violence”, while the north of Kosovo has been the scene for several days of clashes between members of the international force led by NATO (KFOR) and Serb demonstrators.
