What happened on the day of January 17th. Short
Alexei Navalny was detained after returning from Germany to Russia. The plane on which the politician was flying was supposed to land at Vnukovo, but, as Pobeda Airlines explained, “due to the closure [of the airport] for technical reasons,” it was redirected to Sheremetyevo. During the passage of border control, Navalny was detained, now he is in the transit zone of the airport, and his passport is with the border guards.
