nexnews – Jimmy Carter, the 39th president of the United States, has died at 100 years old. He was the longest-living US president, having celebrated his 100th birthday in October. Carter served as president from 1977 to 1981, a time marked by various economic and diplomatic challenges. After leaving office with low approval ratings, Carter rebuilt his reputation through extensive humanitarian work, which earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002.
Carter’s post-presidency years focused on global health, human rights, and peace. He was instrumental in founding The Elders, a group of international leaders working to promote peace and address global challenges. He also dedicated his later years to fighting inequality and disease around the world, living humbly in the house he had before his political career.
Carter is survived by his four children, 11 grandchildren, and 14 great-grandchildren. His wife, Rosalynn, passed away in November 2023. World leaders, including President Joe Biden and former President Bill Clinton, have praised his legacy as a leader, statesman, and humanitarian.
