What title did Malenkov have within the Soviet collective leadership?

  • General Secretary

  • First Among Equals

  • Chief Ideologist

  • Foreign Minister

Answer

The answer is "First Among Equals." This expression describes Georgy Malenkov's position within the collective leadership of the Soviet Union following Joseph Stalin's death in 1953. Although Malenkov initially assumed significant power as both the Premier and Secretary of the Central Committee, his authority was never absolute, as he shared decision-making with other influential figures in the Presidium.
