A group of Greek students attending the 30th International Youth Week celebrations in Turkey were removed from the “Walk of Love” parade and forced to hand over the Turkish flags they carried to organizers, daily Habertürk reported.

The students were then held back at the doors of Anıtkabir.

The leader of the Greek student group also complained of being placed last in the parade lineup.   
It remains unkown why the Greek students were hindered in participating in the celebrations.
