What Wikipedia says

A Life for the Tsar (Russian: Жизнь за царя, romanized: Zhizn za tsarya ) is a "patriotic-heroic tragic" opera in four acts with an epilogue by Mikhail Glinka. During the Soviet era the opera was known under the name Ivan Susanin (Russian: Иван Сусанин ), due to the anti-monarchist censorship.
