Turned 100 – Mourning in the US: Former President Jimmy Carter is dead

Date:

Former American president Jimmy Carter is dead. Various American media reported this unanimously on Sunday. The Democrat lived to be 100 years old, making him the oldest former president in American history.

Jimmy Carter served as US President from 1977 to 1981 and received the Nobel Peace Prize for his humanitarian work.

The 39th president of the United States celebrated his 100th birthday on October 1. Carter was the first former US president to reach that age.

Carter was considered an unhappy president
The Democrat was considered an unhappy president. When he was voted out, he had the reputation of being a quixotic idealist who lacked political assertiveness as a statesman. Later, however, he was repeatedly recognized as the country’s “best ex-president.”

Married for 77 years
Carter last lived in the small town of Plains, Georgia, where he was born on October 1, 1924. His wife Rosalynn (96) died in November 2023 – the two were married for 77 years.
