Russia lacks detention centers for law-breaking migrants

The current capacity of the Ministry of Internal Affairs system is insufficient to effectively identify and temporarily isolate all migrants who have violated the law. The head of the agency made this statement during a speech at a government hour in the Federation Council.

Insufficient center capacity

According to Russian Interior Minister Vladimir Kolokoltsev, the existing network of facilities does not meet the needs for housing individuals against whom a decision for compulsory deportation has been made. The department has already prepared and submitted a request to the government to increase the capacity of these facilities.
