Madeleine Albright, the first female US secretary of state, died Wednesday following a battle with cancer, her family said. She was 84.
“We are heartbroken to announce that Dr. Madeleine K. Albright, the 64th Secretary of State and the first woman to hold that position, passed away earlier today,” her family said in a statement.
Albright was a central figure in President Bill Clinton’s administration. She was named US ambassador to the United Nations when Clinton first took office in 1993 before becoming America’s top diplomat from 1997 to 2001. At the time, she was the highest-ranking woman in the history of US government.
As secretary of state, Albright actively promoted the expansion of NATO and military intervention in Kosovo.

At least we are not going to have to put up with even more nonsense from her about Ukraine.

Kind of ironic in light of recent Ukraine events. She was gung-ho on NATO bombing Serbia (a country friendly to Russia) into submission

When you saw the Clinton crew’s photo, you felt like you were
walking along a carnival midway, with a few really weirded out
folks on display.
I guess that’s rather unacceptable commentary these days, but
it’s the best I can come up with to describe the scene.
