Kim Jong Un Met Putin And Xi Jinping And They Were Caught Talking About Organ Transplants And Immortality
“Human organs can be continuously transplanted. The longer you live, the younger you become, and even achieve immortality,”
North Korea’s president Kim Jong Un went to China to meet Chinese president Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin for a military parade, and they were caught on a hot mic talking about organ transplants.
This was the first public meeting of the leaders of the three countries since the early Cold War era, marking Kim’s first visit to China since 2019.
On Wednesday, Sep. 3, at a parade marking the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II, a live TV feed picked up a conversation between Xi, Putin and Kim as Putin told Xi that “organs can be continuously transplanted to achieve immortality,” while Kim listened.
“Human organs can be continuously transplanted. The longer you live, the younger you become, and even achieve immortality,” Putin’s interpreter was heard saying in Chinese, according to Reuters.
Xi then replied that “Some predict humans may live to 150 years old this century.”
Kim, walking alongside them, did not speak but appeared to smile.
The exchange was broadcast briefly on Chinese state television before narration cut back in, but the remarks spread quickly online.
Both Putin, 72, and Xi, 72, are in their third decades at the center of power, while Kim, 41, is consolidating his control in North Korea after years of sanctions and famine.
After the parade, Kim and Putin held bilateral talks, where Putin praised the bravery of North Korean soldiers fighting alongside Russian troops in Ukraine, and Kim pledged to do "everything I can to assist" Russia.
Putin also invited Kim to visit Russia, which Kim accepted.
