Statement from Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter on the Passing of Helmut Schmidt
Rosalynn and I mourn the loss of our friend Helmut Schmidt. While we did not always agree on the solutions to some issues, we shared a progressive vision for the future of European and U.S. relations and our respective country's roles in global affairs. Once we both left office we enjoyed conferring over many issues and became good colleagues. I have lost a friend and the world has lost an astute leader.
