A group of ultra-nationalist and pro-Kremlin bikers were barred from entering Poland on Sunday on security grounds.
The seven bikers were heading for Germany to celebrate the anniversary of victory over Nazis. They hoped to join other Russian bikers, who are already in Poland.
"They didn't let them enter Poland, citing security reasons. It's crazy. We are heading back to Warsaw without them," the head of the Rajd Katynski Polish bikers' group, Wiktor Wegrzyn, told AFP agency by phone. The Polish bikers were to escort the group while they travel through Polish territory.
Last year, the Night Wolves were also banned from entering Poland amid tense relations between Moscow and Warsaw.
