Something fishy here.

When would a crew find ‘landing gear problem’, and what is the normal sop for such ‘emergency’?

...it reported a problem with its landing gear.

Was it trying to land?
Since it seems to have landed in good condition it seems to me that they could have flown back to its base and avoid having our tech end up in Russian hands.

Isn't having Russia an ally a good thing? Even if we have different national interests, I would think that overall, we should have a good relationship, just in cases like this.

But the Democrats seem to want to be enemies with Russia, for some reason.

Even after reading the article it doesn’t make sense.

How does a problem with landing gear interfere with the normal operation of a Boeing xx135 aircraft? To the extent that it is unable to proceed to its own home port?

These aircraft are part of the START treaties verification process.

Similar Russian aircraft also overfly the USA.

What if they go Snowden. That would be a great trophy for Obama. Perhaps in exchange for some reduced sanctions. You heard it here first.
