President of Republika Srpska (entity within the state of Bosnia and Herzegovina - note Telecomasia.net) Milorad Dodik has apologized for insulting the family of Serb tennis player Novak Djokovic.
Earlier, in an interview with RTS, Dodik said that the behavior of the athlete's family may have a negative impact on the emotional well-being of those around him. He noted that "The Djokovics are some hard motherf------," and added that they conduct business like "real gypsies."

I'm sorry about what happened. I want to apologize if the speculative commentary on social media upset Novak Djokovic's family members. It hurt me, as well. I’d like to thank RTS for my sleepless night. I can't believe they did this in such a heinous way. As a sincere admirer of Novak Djokovic both as a tennis player and as a man, I wish him and his family all the luck.
Djokovic is a 22-time Grand Slam winner, the record holder of 38 Masters titles, and a Davis Cup winner with Serbian national team.
