The Footprint of Mussolini - TL
Well, consider Khrushchev was a major force behind said transfer IOTL, it was probably quietly reversed by Suslov ITTL after his coup.
In OTL it happened in 1954 and same probably happened in OTL too when Kruschev was till leader of USSR. Another thing is would Suslov had reversed that. In other hand Brezhnev didn't do that in OTL altough he reversed Kruschev's acts pretty much.
Yes, and Suslov never changed it back since he never expected a breakdown like this. Given the absolute state of Russia at this time, no one wants to be a part of it.
Basically another Kalingrad. The population is overwhelmingly Russian and it intends to remain so. Some Finnish nationalists rattle sabres but every sensible person knows its not worth it.
As even with Malenkov destroying all of Russia's nukes, Russia still have a conventional military, which, while no match for any Western military, would probably still be enough to deal with any such antics, right?
Certainly. Plus, the West is trying to encourage the new Russia to be successful, so trying to take advantage to rip off a piece or two (which could contribute to a backlash) would be highly looked down upon.
What is the government of post-Soviet Russia like? Is it Presidential, Semi-Presidential, or Parliamentary?
At the moment, Presidential, but reforms are escalating. The ultimate goal is a highly devolved society with the Church acting almost as the unofficial government. Church-run schools are being set up nationwide, they would be in charge of food distribution in many of the rural areas and the head of the Orthodox Church would probably be the second most powerful person in the country - the Unions are likewise beholden deeply to the Church.
So, how has the Cool War affected the Beagle Conflict between Chile and Argentina as Chile is ITO-aligned and Argentina is part of the RA?
By “destroy nukes”, does that mean disassembly/destruction of the delivery systems, while creating a large stockpile of fissionable material? If so, does that mean such material would be kept in Russia under some international scrutiny, or would Malenkov have it expelled from the country for some other party to deal with? Either way, it’s still a Pandora’s box waiting for some mischief.

The stakes are too high for anything other than words - but that may change in the coming years.
So what's going to happen to the Black sea Fleet with Crimea gone is it going to be moved to the Pacific, degrade due to lack of funds or just outright disband
