Henry Kissinger: A life in pictures
Henry Kissinger, the polarising secretary of state who served under the Nixon and Ford administrations, has died at age 100.
He passed away at home in Connecticut of unspecified causes, his consulting firm Kissinger Associates announced on Wednesday.
Kissinger, hailed by many as the architect of American foreign policy, served as secretary of state and national security adviser to presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford between 1969 and 1977.
The diplomat helped negotiate an end to the US role in Vietnam, guided a rapprochement with China and facilitated arms control agreements
