The body of the late US President Jimmy Carter lay in state at the US Capitol in Washington, DC, ahead of a state funeral, with thousands of people braving freezing temperatures to pay their respects.
Vice President Kamala Harris and other elected officials were among those paying tribute, highlighting the achievements of the former president, who died last month at the age of 100.
David Smith, a professor at the Carter Center for Peace and Conflict Resolution at George Mason University, said the former president had a profound impact on his career.
The visit to the Capitol was not only a tribute to the late President Carter, but also a tribute to his achievements. A state funeral for the late President Carter will be held on Thursday.
Like former President Carter, President Joe Biden, a Democrat, will also deliver a speech in honor of former President Carter on Thursday.
