Henry Kissinger, 98, Born In 1923 – 56th United States Secretary Of State

Henry Kissinger’s political career saw him serve as the 56th U.S. Secretary of State and the National Security Advisor under the regimes of two former presidents: Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford. On top of being a politician, he’s also a well-respected diplomat and a geopolitical expert.

The 98-year-old Nobel Peace Prize-winner has recently been outspoken about the immense threats of the tension between China and the United States of America, both giants in the military and technology world. As a consultant to Nixon in 1971, Kissinger was responsible for crafting Washington and Beijing’s unfreezing of relations.
