The \u0110okovi\u0107 family is therefore considering the OAKA arena as a better option,&#8221; the Greeks write.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The turbulent situation in Serbia and the desperate struggle of the SNS to retain power have reached a completely new level when it comes to media propaganda and the control of information that must pass the filter of the current regime&#8217;s suitability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Novak \u0110okovi\u0107 also felt this, and only because he dared to use his democratic right and freedom of speech to comment on the situation in society and the state that could potentially have consequences for the lives of all of us, including theirs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that freedom and that right cost him brutal media attacks, or the complete abolition of any kind of information regarding their activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Novak has unequivocally supported the students and their fight for a better tomorrow in Serbia on several occasions, which he has every right to do, and which is why he is under attack from the regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><mark style=\"background-color:#FFFFFF;color:#d21414\" class=\"has-inline-color\">MORE TOPICS:<\/mark><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbian-students-shone-in-bolivia-three-medals-at-the-world-informatics-olympiad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBIAN STUDENTS SHONE IN BOLIVIA: Three medals at the World Informatics Olympiad!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/dijana-hrka-told-the-state-i-want-to-see-people-in-prison-and-i-want-to-know-who-killed-my-child-video\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">DIJANA HRKA TOLD THE STATE: \u201cI want to see people in prison and I want to know who killed my child!\u201d (VIDEO)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/its-official-now-vucic-pardoned-the-girl-who-hit-a-student-with-a-car-at-a-protest-in-belgrade\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">IT\u2019S OFFICIAL NOW: Vu\u010di\u0107 pardoned the girl who hit a student with a car at a protest in Belgrade!<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/serbian-volleyball-player-responded-to-the-albanian-singer-girl-you-cant-be-a-citizen-of-something-that-doesnt-exist-photo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">SERBIAN VOLLEYBALL PLAYER RESPONDED TO THE ALBANIAN SINGER: \u201cGirl, you can\u2019t be a citizen of something that doesn\u2019t exist!\u201d (PHOTO)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/serbiantimes.info\/en\/moving-memories-of-a-serb-exiled-in-oluja-rade-fled-with-his-family-from-banija-for-13-days-images-of-the-hearth-forever-etched-in-his-memory-photo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">MOVING MEMORIES OF A SERB EXILED IN \u201cOLUJA\u201d: Rade fled with his family from Banija for 13 days, images of the hearth forever etched in his memory!
