Leonid Brezhnev[a] (19 December 1906 – 10 November 1982) was a Soviet revisionist politician who served as General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union from 1964 until his death in 1982 as well as the Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet from 1960 to 1964 and again from 1977 to 1982.
Under his 18 year rule of the Soviet Union, he retained most counter-revolutionary policies of his predecessor, Nikita Khrushchev, and greatly expanded the Soviet Union's social-imperialist aims, invading multiple countries. Furthermore, his leadership saw considerable increases in technocracy, bureaucratism, and corruption.[1] He would also be the leading cause of the Sino-Soviet Split, weakening the Communist movement worldwide.
