Kissinger, Henry (May 27, 1923 - )[edit]
Dr. Henry Kissinger is a Nobel Peace Prize winner and former National Security Adviser and Secretary of State in the Nixon and Ford administrations of the US government. He was a key figure in US foreign policy in the 1960s and 70s, playing a decisive role in many important events including the US-Soviet Union relations during the Cold War, the ending of US involvement in the Vietnam War, encouraging the broadening of relations with China, and negotiating an end to the Yom Kippur War which paved the way for peace negotiations between Israel and Egypt. Kissinger is still considered an influential figure in international policies and is often asked to consult in foreign policy matters.
