Russian despot Vladimir Putin has been caught rambling about immortality during a summit with Xi Jinping and Kim Jong Un.
President Putin, who is currently in Beijing alongside the North Korean leader and various other global figures to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the conclusion of World War II, was unexpectedly overheard in an informal discussion with China’s premier.
The leaders, both aged 72, were reportedly discussing the notion of attaining immortality through the use of organ transplants and advanced medical technology, with Kim Jong Un also part of the conversation.
Xi told Putin via a translator: ‘Earlier, people rarely lived to 70, but these days at 70 you are still a child’.
Putin remarked, ‘Human organs can be continuously transplanted. The longer you live, the younger you become, and you might even achieve immortality.’
Xi said in response: ‘Predictions are, this century, there is also a chance of living to 150’.
This unusual discussion arises amid enduring accusations against China for allegedly engaging in illicit organ harvesting from minority groups held in detention across the country, including Falun Gong practitioners, Uyghurs, Tibetans, Muslims, and Christians.
In 2021, UN human rights experts reported credible evidence suggesting that minority communities were subjected to medical examinations and organ removal without their consent.

The chilling conversation highlights ongoing allegations against China regarding illegal organ harvesting from detained minority groups across the nation.
They said: ‘We are deeply concerned by reports of discriminatory treatment of the prisoners or detainees based on their ethnicity and religion or belief.
‘According to the allegations received, the most common organs removed from the prisoners are reportedly hearts, kidneys, livers, corneas and, less commonly, parts of livers.
‘This form of trafficking with a medical nature allegedly involves health sector professionals, including surgeons, anaesthetists and other medical specialists.’
As for Russia, last year Russian scientists were being ordered to find a cure for ageing.
The Russian health ministry told research institutes to investigate cures for cognitive and sensory disorders, cellular ageing and osteoporosis, as well as medicine for boosting immune systems.
One anonymous researcher told Meduza: ‘We were asked to urgently send all our developments, and the letter arrived, let’s say, today, but everything had to be sent yesterday’.
China hosted dozens of world leaders for a massive military parade in Tiananmen Square yesterday.

Though it was, on the surface, put on to celebrate the 80th anniversary of World War II, the 90-minute showcase was Beijing’s attempt to display its military might to the rest of the world.
Countless soldiers, sailors and airmen marched in near-perfect unison alongside intercontinental ballistic missiles, tanks and stealth planes that where wheeled out to show off to the world.
But on top of the aggressive posturing, it was also a chance for President Xi Jinping to show off his nation’s rising diplomatic standing in the world, as nations slowly extricate themselves from the West’s influence amid major changes in political and macroeconomic currents.
President Xi’s opening address saw him proclaim that China is ‘firmly stand[ing] on the right side of history and the progress of human civilisation’.
He described his ‘strong and self-reliant’ country is a ‘great nation that fears no violence’, and boldly said the ‘rejuvenation of the Chinese nation is unstoppable’.
Though dozens of world leaders, the three belles of the ball were, of course, Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Putin and Kim flanked the Chinese premier as they climbed to the viewing platform overlooking Tiananmen Square and watched the display of military hardware and marching troops.
It was the first time the three of them, all major rivals of the West, have ever gathered in the same place at the same time.

It was also the first time that Kim, who had arrived in Beijing on Tuesday via train, has attended a major multilateral event.
Observers said the rare joint appearance was a show of unity against the United States.
And the message seems to have got through to US president Donald Trump, who asked on Truth Social whether China would recognise the US’ contribution to World War II.
He also sarcastically asked Xi to ‘give my warmest regards to [Putin and Kim] as you conspire against the United States’.
Despite Trump’s frosty reaction, it already appears that the implicit declaration of solidarity is working.
At a one-to-one meeting with Putin, Kim said North Korea has a ‘fraternal duty’ to assist Russia and that the two nations would discuss deepening relations.
He cryptically said: ‘If there’s anything I can do for you and the people of Russia, if there is more that needs to be done, I will consider it as a fraternal duty, an obligation that we surely need to bear, and will be prepared to do everything possible to help.’
Though he didn’t explicitly mention Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, the Russian leader later admitted that sending North Korean troops to fight on the frontlines on Russia’s side was Kim’s idea.

He said: ‘On your initiative, as is well known, your special forces took part in the liberation of the Kursk region,’ Putin said in a meeting with his North Korean counterpart.
‘This was in full accordance with our new agreement. I would like to note that your soldiers fought courageously and heroically.’
‘We will never forget the sacrifices made by your armed forces and the families of your servicemen,’ he added.
