This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
In Classic Editor, when entering a tag name, the AJAX request (ajax-tag-search) does not return some tags in Ukrainian, even though they exist in the database and are correctly translated in WPML. This issue does not occur in Gutenberg.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend you go to WPML -> Languages and check the box for

Adjust IDs for multilingual functionality

. This adjustment should resolve the issue by ensuring that the AJAX requests in Classic Editor correctly recognize the language settings.

Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.

I didn't have enough room to back up. The operation was aborted.

If you are unable to use the cloudways site that I set up, please use a plugin such as WP Staging or ask your hosting provider to set up a staging site where we can further troubleshoot.

I have marked the next reply as private so that you can securely share credentials to your staging site. Thanks!

Great, can you send me the link to the staging site? I have the credentials in your previous post but not the URL to login. I've marked the next reply as private so that can share the links in the secure fields.

When I used the link you sent yesterday, it redirected me to the regular site, not a staging site. I checked again today and now when I try the link it get a message that it has been forgotten. Please share credentials to the staging site in your next reply and use the private fields ot send the credentials not the general response field.

This is the link to your STAGING site? Because it is the same link that you used in the original chat that was opened. So before I begin setting the site to minimal and disablign plugins and theme, please confirm that this is the correct link to run these tests: hidden link (this link will remain hidden to anyone not logged in to this ticket).

Yeah, it's a test site. You can do whatever you want with it)))

I deactivated all non WPML plugins and ran through the clean up steps in the troubleshooting section. I then created a test post named WPML test. Now, when I type Трамп in the tags, I can see more results. Can you confirm that it is working for you as well?

If so, please start to enable the plugins one a time and check to see if the issue returns. If it does, let me know which plugin is conflicting.

This is because you enter words in the news in Russian. But you should be in Ukrainian.
You're very careless 🤦‍♂️

I double checked earlier in both languages multiple times, but now it's showing different again. And I am also seeing that some of the terms (for example, "Tags" was previously showing as translated and now it's in English). Did you happen to enable any plugins in between my last test and now?

I also noticed that if you click "Choose from the most used tags", I am seeing the tag "Дональд Трамп" - are you seeing that there in both languages? I've confirmed I'm on the Ukrainian post and this is the link to the post I am testing on: hidden link

I didn't do anything, I didn't touch any plugins. I created a news item and immediately checked the tag.
I see Donald Trump in the tags I use most often.
