Australia cancels visa of world tennis No.1 Novak Djokovic and intends to deport
him on Thursday, with his lawyers expected to appeal.
澳大利亚取消世界网球排名第一
诺瓦克-德约科维奇的签证
并打算在周四将其驱逐出境
预计其律师将提出上诉
The world number one was held in the city's airport for several hours before bor
der forces announced he had not met entry rules and would be deported.
It came a day after he was granted an exemption from vaccination rules to play i
n the Australian Open.
Australian PM Scott Morrison said no one was above the rules, and Djokovic is re
portedly challenging the decision.
Shortly after his arrival in Melbourne, authorities noticed that his team had no
t requested a visa that permits medical exemptions for being unvaccinated. Djoko
vic has not spoken about his vaccination status, but last year he said he was "o
pposed to vaccination".
It is not clear whether the player will remain in Australia while his lawyers at
tempt to overturn the decision.
In a statement, the Australian Border Force said Djokovic "failed to provide app
ropriate evidence to meet the entry requirements to Australia, and his visa has
been subsequently cancelled.
"Non-citizens who do not hold a valid visa on entry or who have had their visa c
ancelled will be detained and removed from Australia," it added.
在边境检查署宣布他不符合入境规则并将被驱逐出境之前，这位世界头号球星
在该市机场被关押了几个小时。
这是在他获得豁免接种规则参加澳大利亚公开赛的第二天。
澳大利亚总理斯科特-莫里森说
没有人可以凌驾于规则之上
据说德约科维奇正在挑战这一决定
在他抵达墨尔本后不久
当局注意到他的团队没有申请允许未接种疫苗的医疗豁免的签证。
德约科维奇没有谈及他的疫苗接种情况，
但去年他说他 "反对接种疫苗"。
目前还不清楚在他的律师试图推翻这一决定时，这位球员是否会留在澳大利亚。
澳大利亚边境检查署在一份声明中说，
德约科维奇 "未能提供适当的证据来满足澳大利亚的入境要求，他的签证随后被取消。
"它补充说："未持有有效入境签证或被取消签证的非公民将被拘留并被带离澳大利亚。
Australian Health Minister Greg Hunt told Channel 7 News Sunrise programme: "Aus
tralians have had to do it tough, and Australians in many different states and t
erritories have to show their vaccination record... it's not unreasonable to hav
e exactly the same requirements of all who enter this country."
Prime Minister Scott Morrison tweeted: "Rules are rules, especially when it come
s to our borders. No one is above these rules."
His treatment has provoked outrage in his native Serbia. His father, Srdjan Djok
ovic said his son was had been in a room guarded by police.
"This is not just a fight for Novak, but a fight for the whole world," he said i
n a statement released to the media.
President Aleksander Vucic said the star was a victim of "harassment", and that
"the whole of Serbia", supported him.
澳大利亚卫生部长格雷格-亨特告诉第7频道新闻日出节目。"澳大利亚人不得不做得很艰难
，许多不同州和地区的澳大利亚人必须出示他们的疫苗接种记录......对所有进入这个国家
的人有完全相同的要求，这不是不合理的。"
总理斯科特-莫里森在推特上说。"规则就是规则，特别是在涉及到我们的边界时。没有人可
以超越这些规则"。
他的待遇在他的家乡塞尔维亚引起了愤怒。
他的父亲斯尔詹-德约科维奇说他的儿子被关在一个有警察看守的房间里。
他在向媒体发布的一份声明中说：
这不仅是诺瓦克的战斗，也是整个世界的战斗。
塞尔维亚总统亚历山大-武契奇说
这位明星是 "骚扰 "的受害者，
而 "整个塞尔维亚 "都支持他。
Australia is seeing tens of thousands of Covid-19 cases for the first time after
enduring some of the world's strictest restrictions. More than 90% of Australia
's over-16 population is fully vaccinated, but some people still cannot travel i
nterstate or globally because of current measures.
Many Australians had previously accused the government of allowing the rich and
famous to do as they please while ordinary people remained separated from sick a
nd dying loved ones.
The Australian Open begins on 17 January in Melbourne. Djokovic has previously w
on the tournament nine times.
澳大利亚在经历了一些世界上最严格的限制措施之后，首次出现了数以万计的Covid-19病例
。
澳大利亚16岁以上人口的90%以上都已完全接种疫苗，但由于目前的措施，一些人仍然不能
跨州或全球旅行。
许多澳大利亚人此前曾指责政府允许富人和名人为所欲为，而普通人仍与生病和死亡的亲人
分离。
澳大利亚公开赛于1月17日在墨尔本开始。德约科维奇此前曾九次赢得这项赛事。
