Milorad Dodik barked at tennis star Novak Djokovic’s family.
Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik let the frog out of his mouth. PDO
Tennis star Novak Djokovic has been subjected to a tasteless insult on the television of his home country, Serbia. Reported about it Tennis World USA.
Republika Srpska President Milorad Dodik had harsh words about Djokovic and his family on live broadcast after his microphone was accidentally turned on.
Dodik had been involved in organizing the Srpska Open tennis tournament, where Djokovic, hired as the main star, was unexpectedly eliminated in the quarterfinals. This did not please Dodik.
– I can tell you that these Djokovics are really difficult bastards. When doing business with them… huh huh. They are real gypsies, Dodik would say on the RTS TV channel.
– And then Novak loses in the quarterfinals, when we had built everything around it (that he will play in the final).
Dodik later published a statement in which he regretted his words. However, the man’s statements were a bit questionable as an apology.
– Apologies to Djokovic’s family if the material you saw hurt you. It hurt me too. I would like to thank RTS for my sleepless night. I can’t believe they pulled such a big trick, the politician snapped.
