The last in a series to speak out was the former head coach of the tennis team of Serbia, Bogdan Obradovic, who pointed out in an exclusive interview for Meridian Sport that this has nothing to do with tennis.
"All this has no connection with sports, it is a matter of politics, a new world order is being created. Much bigger experts than me will confirm that in the future, from a scientific point of view," said Obradovic.
He added that the way the Australians behaved in the previous 24 hours is appalling.
"The way they treated Novak Djokovic is scandalous. Taking away his phone, the way they detained him using two cars, like he's a drug smuggler, rather than the best athlete of all time..." added the former Serbian coach.
