Can Russia request my arrest through Interpol even if I left the country legally?

Yes, Russian authorities routinely issue Red Notice requests against individuals who departed legally, often months or years after emigration. The legal basis for departure is irrelevant to Interpol’s diffusion system. Russia frequently initiates international wanted alerts after opening criminal cases in absentia, particularly for economic crimes, fraud, or politically sensitive matters. Your lawful exit does not prevent a subsequent Red Notice request, which is why proactive monitoring and early legal intervention are critical for anyone who has business disputes or legal exposure in Russia.
