I am trying to:
switch localization to Russian

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
hidden link
language switching is in the footer

I expected to see:
site localization will switch to Russian

Instead, I got:
page reloads

Our site has localization in many languages, but only when I try to switch the localization of the site to Russian - the page reloads while the domain does not change.
The main page of the site definitely has localization for Russian.
Any guesses what could be the problem?

Hello,

Welcome to the WPML support forum.
I can see using the link below that there are several redirects involved.
hidden link

1. Basic steps
- Go to "Settings > Reading" and resave your static homepage
- Go to "Settings > Permalinks" and resave your permalinks

2. Is the translation published?
- Please go to "Pages" switch to RU using the language switcher in the top admin bar and check if the RU homepage is published.

3. Let's try to identify the source of those redirections:
- Do you have any Redirection plugin, or a SEO plugin that has this functionality? Check if you have any redirections created.
- Check your .htaccess file for redirections too.
