MOSCOW (Reuters)
--- Russia on Monday
demanded an explanation from Poland
as to why it denied entry to a group of Russian bikers commemorating the 70th
anniversary of the end of World War Two. The bikers are attempting to ride from
Moscow to Berlin
as a publicity stunt.
Poland had said on Friday it would
not allow the bikers club “Night Wolves”, which has ties to Russian President
Vladimir Putin, to cross into its territory.
Russia's Foreign Ministry said in a statement it
"decisively condemned" Poland's decision to bar entry for
the bikers and said the move could be considered sacrilegious, given the
heroism shown by Soviet soldiers who fought against the Nazis during World War
Two.
Since it’s the sovereign
right of any country to allow or not allow foreign nationals on to their soil
lets hope the Polish Government keeps out this biker gang.
