Suslov's main achievements were increasing the industrial output of Lativa under his rule by 14 times and overthrowing Khruschev, which saw the installation of Brezhnev as the head of the USSR, his staunch commitment to supporting third-world national liberation movements, such as the [[File:FLN.png]] [[Arab Socialism|Algerian FLN movement]], the [[File:Nasser2.png]] [[Arab Socialism|Nasserist Egypt]], and many others. He was also credited for living a plain life and refusing to engage in corruption. Suslov was forced to support the invasion of Hungary despite his initial reservations due to the overwhelming support of the presidium. Still, he later opposed the invasion of Czechoslovakia and was skeptical of using [[File:SocImp.png]] [[Imperialism|social imperialist]] methods. However, he supported the invasion of Afghanistan and staunchly opposed all nationalist movements within the USSR and the Socialist Camp, favoring a more centralized Soviet state and world socialist movement.
 
As the leader of the Stalinist wing of the CPSU, Suslov was allied with Neo-Stalinists like [[File:GrigoryRomanov.png]] Grigory Romanov. Suslov opposed any further detente attempt by [[File:Kosygin.png]] [[Market Socialism|Kosygin]] and Brezhnev with the [[File:Cball-US.png]] USA despite their diplomatic flexibility due to his skepticism of trade with the [[File:Cball-NATO.png]] [[Neoconservatism|capitalist bloc]]; despite this, he was a staunch supporter of the peaceful co-existence theory due to the threat of a nuclear war, and he sharply criticized Mao for opposing this theory. Since the mid-1960s, Suslov became increasingly hardline on foreign and domestic policies as he blocked the 1965 economic reform, voiced strong criticisms against [[File:Mao.png]] [[Maoism|Maoist China]] 's "revisionism," and criticized it as deviating from [[File:ML.png]] Marxist-Leninist orthodoxy, just like Titoist Yugoslavia. Despite his overall support of [[File:JosephStalin.png]] Stalin, Suslov was critical of his [[File:Auto.png]] [[Autocracy|autocracy]] and [[File:Cultofpersonality.png]] personality cult. He restored the [[File:CollectiveLeadership.png]] [[Oligarchy|collective leadership]] of the [[File:Lenin.png]] [[Leninism|Lenin era]], as opposed to the one-man rule of the Stalin and Khrushchev eras. Suslov also opposed the [[File:SocFash.png]] [[Social Authoritatianism|"Social Fascism"]] theory of Stalin. He was generally supportive of communist parties allying [[File:LeftSocdem.png]] [[Social Democracy|social democratic]]/[[Socialism|socialist]] [[File:Soc-h.png]] parties, which he saw as a "progressive force", especially in the third world. However, he was vehemently opposed to any attempt to revise orthodox Marxist-Leninist ideals of violent revolution and a one-party socialist republic, as he saw these attempts as revisionist.
