Protesting 'lax immigration' policies...an estimated 5,000-20,000 ultra-nationalists marched peacefully and legally Sunday in Moscow...and a few other cities...on 'Unity Day'...a national holiday.
Many marchers were dressed in black...and shouted 'Moscow is a Russian city.'
They want an end to a growing wave of immigrants from the Caucasus and Central Asia.
They also condemn President Putin for his policies...with some calling him 'the head of a criminal regime.'
No injuries were reported...but police detained 25 men wearing swastikas.
