Putin promises to extend life in Russia to 150 years: what is behind the statement

According to glavcom.ua: At the 'Sber' conference AI Journey-2025, Russian leader Vladimir Putin stated that it could extend life expectancy in Russia to 150 years. This statement has become relevant in the context of the record decline in average life expectancy last year, which was 72.84 years according to Rosstat.

Putin noted that extending life to such an age is possible thanks to innovative biotechnologies, but more importantly, it is not just about adding years, but about the quality and purpose of life. A person should reach infinity not only in terms of years but also in satisfaction with life and achieving personal goals.
