 | | At an extraordinary session of the Central Committee held in late June, Khrushchev argued that his opponents were an "anti-Party Group" and won a vote reaffirming his position as First Secretary and expelling Molotov, Kaganovich and Malenkov from the Secretariat and ultimately from the Communist Party itself. |  | | In 1958, Bulganin was forced to retire with Khrushchev becoming Premier as well as First Secretary. |  | | Khrushchev, with the backing of Defence Minister Georgy Zhukov, argued that only the Central Committee of the CPSU could remove him from office. |
