After the war, he advocated for increasing basic industry and military strength, while Andrei Zhdanov prioritized ideology and living standards. After Stalin died in 1953, Malenkov became Premier of the Soviet Union and Khrushchev became General Secretary of the CPSU. In 1957, Khrushchev expelled Malenkov, Molotov, and Kaganovich from the Central Committee.[1]
