  Former US President Jimmy Carter dies at 100

Jimmy Carter, the 39th president of the United States and winner of the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize, died Sunday at the age of 100 at his home in Plains, Georgia, the Carter Center said, AzVision.az reports, citing Anadolu Agency.

"My father was a hero, not only to me but to everyone who believes in peace, human rights, and unselfish love," said Chip Carter, the former president’s son.

"My brothers, sister and I shared him with the rest of the world through these common beliefs. The world is our family because of the way he brought people together, and we thank you for honoring his memory by continuing to live these shared beliefs."

The longest-lived American president served from January 1977 to January 1981.
