I know this wont be the only thread like this, but it's worth another go.
The premise of this topic is simple what if Joseph Stalin survived to reach the age of 90 or 80’s whilst retaining enough mental faculties and physical fitness to stay in office? (This is not impossible many old men maintain their vigour, and I doubt anyone in the CPSU would have the stones or the skill to oust him

)
This could be accomplished if Stalin say cut-down on his smoking and late-night binges or watered down his drinks maybe a better diet would help too.
Stalin was paranoid about doctors but he
was capable of listening to medical advice. This could reduce his heart problems/blood pressure and allow him to avoid a major stroke (I think he had more strokes than one that killed him)
What effect would a 60's Stalin have? His rule would last beyond the 40 year mark for one thing extending well into the life of another generation dissident groups would be ruthlessly destroyed rather than just jailed or harassed like they were in Brezhnev’s time (Look at Russia today when thinking about the Brezhnev’s era it wasn’t the Stalinist hell propaganda made it out to be). We can assume Eastern Europe would remain Stalinist, and be kept under much much tighter control uprisings against the Stalinist governments with Stalin still alive would be crazy thing to do the Yugoslav situation would be rather tense to say the least through.
De Stalinization would likely be much harder if it can even take place at
all, because at this much later time. It'd cause much more harm than good to the Soviet goverment, and hardlines would be very much in charge in any event....Hell by 1970 the U.S.S.R may look like North Korea.
