Republican lawmaker supports Djokovic and criticizes US President Biden

The world tennis star, Novak Djokovic, is preparing for another bitter struggle due to his failure to receive the Covid 19 vaccine, to participate in the US Open Tennis Championships, one of the major tournaments (Grand Slam).

And by virtue of the current laws in the United States, any foreigner is prevented from entering American lands if he does not receive any type of approved vaccines for the Corona virus, which makes Djokovic ineligible to enter America and thus participate in the American Championship.

Djokovic fears that the Australian Championship scenario, which sparked widespread controversy, and led to his suspension, and later deportation due to not receiving the Corona vaccine, and preventing him from participating in the tournament, will be repeated with him.

And the British newspaper, “The Express”, said that because of this complicated situation, a Republican representative named Louis Gommert of Texas intervened, and demanded that the Democratic US president remove all “Corona obstacles” to the entry of foreigners to American lands, and said that it was “unreasonable that the best player would be prevented.” Tennis in the world from entering America and participating in the major tournament."

The Republican representative strongly attacked the Biden administration, saying that his administration's adherence to these requirements "is against science and against America."

"It is very absurd that they continue to prevent people from traveling because of the Corona vaccine," he said.
