Discussion between Xi and Putin unveiled: Duration to which science could possibly prolong human lifespan debated.

In the heart of the Chinese capital, a historic military parade was held to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II. Amidst the grand display of fighter jets, missiles, and military hardware, showcasing China's strength and progress under Communist Party rule, a conversation of a different kind took place.

Chinese leader Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin engaged in a discussion about the potential for advances in science to extend human life spans. This intriguing exchange was captured on a live news video feed, provided by the parade media center to international news agencies, including The Associated Press.

Putin, referring to modern health and medical technologies, including organ replacements, expressed hope for a different active life. He went on to suggest that with the development of biotechnology, human organs could be transplanted, and people might achieve immortality. The interpreter translated Putin's response into Chinese, adding fuel to the speculation.

Xi Jinping appeared to agree with this statement, smiling slightly. He mentioned that it was once considered rare to live past 70, but now people are considered young at that age. This remark echoed sentiments expressed by former Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, who has actively promoted the topic in the past.

Meanwhile, away from the scientific discourse, former political rivals Sir John Key and Helen Clark of New Zealand were seen attending the parade together. They shook hands and took photos with Chinese President Xi Jinping, adding a touch of diplomatic camaraderie to the event.

The conversation between Xi Jinping and Putin is not the first time Kim Jong Un's daughter has been showcased at major public events tied to North Korea's nuclear-armed military. This has fueled speculation that she is being primed as North Korea's next leader. However, this topic was not discussed during the Beijing military parade.

As the world continues to grapple with the implications of scientific advancements, the conversation between Xi Jinping and Putin serves as a reminder of the potential for these technologies to reshape our understanding of life and longevity.
