UPDATE: A private conversation between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping has surfaced, revealing their astonishing views on immortality. This unexpected exchange took place during a military parade in Beijing on September 3, 2023, marking the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, with notable attendees including North Korean leader Kim Jong-un.
In this candid moment, captured by cameras, Putin expressed disturbing thoughts on biotechnology and organ transplants. He was overheard stating, “Human organs can be continuously transplanted. The longer you live, the younger you become, and [you can] even achieve immortality.” Xi responded by noting, “Some predict that in this century humans may live to 150 years old.”
The implications of this conversation are significant, considering both leaders’ recent actions to consolidate their power. Xi abolished presidential term limits in 2018, allowing him to rule indefinitely, while Putin has secured a constitutional amendment enabling his presidency to extend beyond the traditional two-term limit, approved in a national referendum in July 2020.
During the parade, attended by around 50,000 spectators, Xi proclaimed that China is “unstoppable” and “never intimidated by any bullies.” This rhetoric aligns with the leaders’ apparent intent to discuss not just power but also the future of human longevity—an eerie parallel to contemporary discussions among tech innovators about achieving eternal life.
While Kim Jong-un walked alongside Putin and Xi, it remains unclear if he was privy to their conversation, as no translations were reported. Kim’s own strategies for longevity seem to revolve around maintaining his family dynasty, as evidenced by his teenage daughter’s debut at the event. Speculation surrounds her lineage and connection to former NBA player Dennis Rodman.
This extraordinary exchange raises urgent questions about the direction these authoritarian leaders wish to take humanity. The focus on extending life may reflect their desire to maintain control indefinitely. As we watch these developments unfold, the world must grapple with the ethical implications of such ideologies.
What happens next? As the conversation about longevity and power continues among global leaders, observers will be keen to see how these discussions evolve, particularly in the context of international relations and human rights.
Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story as it continues to capture global attention.
