Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese counterpart Xi Jinping's hot-mic moment was caught on cam where the two leaders were heard discussing the possibility of immortality and life expectancy up to "150 years". North Korean President Kim Jong Un was also a part of the conversation.
“Biotechnology is continuously developing. Human organs can be continuously transplanted. The longer you live, the younger you become, and [you can] even achieve immortality,” Putin’s translator, after which, Xi's translator added, “Some predict that in this century humans may live to 150 years old. Earlier, people rarely lived to 70, but these days at 70 years you are still a child.”
Meanwhile, Kim Jong Un watched with a smile, glancing toward Putin and Xi as their rare hot-mic exchange played out.
The trio viewed a military parade in Beijing marking the 80th anniversary of the end of World War Two. While nominally a commemoration, the event became Xi’s platform to display China’s military prowess and signal solidarity with partner nations.
The exchange took place shortly before Xi, addressing over 50,000 spectators, warned the world was at a crossroads between “peace or war” while reviewing troops and advanced weaponry like hypersonic missiles and naval drones.
