It’s possible he was assassinated.
That’s always the problem with being in power, there’s almost certainly someone who wants to get rid of you, but the more paranoid you behave about it the number of people who want you gone increases.

I wouldn’t say that an alcoholic in his 70s who died from cerebral hemorrhaging was assassinated.
Stalin spent the last 15-20 years of his life getting blackout drunk every single night. He also forced all of his top ministers and generals to join him in this drunkenness.
The full story is wild.
Then when Stalin died, everyone sort of knew that he was having a medical emergency, and they left him laying on the carpet to die for hours.
Which is also a wild story.

He was slowly poisoned over years by this arch rival, Stalin.
