The documents indicate a person whose name and date of birth match Smirnov's details, and this individual has visited Russia 22 times since the beginning of the war in Donbas and almost until the full-scale invasion of Russia.
The documents also mention Andrey Kostin, whose date of birth matches that of the recently dismissed Attorney General. This individual traveled to Russia 11 times after the war began. The last visit occurred just two weeks before the presidential elections on March 19, 2019.
