Jimmy Carter, the longest-living US president, has passed away at the age of 100. The former peanut farmer and Nobel Peace Prize winner redefined his legacy through his extensive humanitarian work.
Jimmy Carter, the 39th president of the United States, has died at the age of 100, leaving behind a lasting impact on American politics and global humanitarian efforts. Known for his humility and commitment to peace, Carter served as president from 1977 to 1981. His time in office was marked by economic challenges, diplomatic tensions, and the Iran hostage crisis.
Although his presidency ended with low approval ratings, Carter’s post-presidential years saw him emerge as a respected global figure, recognised for his dedication to human rights and peace. In 2002, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts in promoting democracy and alleviating suffering worldwide.
Carter’s humanitarian work, including his involvement with Habitat for Humanity and his tireless efforts to promote public health and human rights, cemented his legacy as one of the most influential former presidents in history. He is also remembered for his devotion to his family, particularly his 77-year marriage to his wife Rosalynn, who passed away in November.
