Zastave se vijore na pola koplja na Washington Monumentu u Washingtonu nakon smrti bivšeg predsjednika SAD Jimmyja Cartera, 30. decembra 2024.

Predsjednik Joe Biden proglasio je 9. januar nacionalnim danom žalosti za bivšim predsjednikom Jimmyjem Carterom i najavio u ponedjeljak da će svi uredi savezne vlade tog dana biti zatvoreni u znak poštovanja prema 39. predsjedniku SAD-a, koji je umro u nedjelju u 100. godini.

Washington — 

"Pozivam američki narod da se okupi tog dana u svojim bogomoljama, tamo da oda počast uspomeni na predsjednika Jamesa Earla Cartera Jr.", rekao je Biden u zvaničnoj deklaraciji objavljenoj u nedjelju kasno. "Pozivam ljude svijeta koji dijele našu tugu da nam se pridruže u ovom svečanom obilježavanju."

Predsjednik Joe Biden govori o smrti bivšeg predsjednika Jimmyja Cartera, 29. decembra 2024. u hotelu Company House u Christianstedu, St. Croix, Američka Djevičanska ostrva.

Svečani događaj 9. januara u glavnom gradu nacije okupit će sve žive američke predsjednike i mnoštvo zvanica. Biden je također naredio da se američka zastava vijori na pola koplja 30 dana od datuma Carterove smrti na javnim zgradama, vojnim postajama i zgradama američkih vlada u inostranstvu.

Događaji počinju u subotu

Biden je Carteru priredio državnu sahranu, višednevni događaj u tri faze koji koordinira američka vojska, a koji uključuje obilježavanje u glavnom gradu i ceremonije u matičnoj državi pokojnika. Carter je u više navrata izrazio želju da bude sahranjen u svom dvorištu u malom gradu Plains, Georgia, pored svoje 77-godišnje supruge Rosalynn. Umrla je 2023. Carter je bio u bolnici dvije godine prije nego što ga je vlastita smrt u 100. godini učinila najdugovječnijim bivšim predsjednikom u istoriji SAD-a.

Obilježavanje ovog uzgajivača kikirikija koji je postao predsjednik trajat će nekoliko dana i uključivat će koordinaciju lokalnih, državnih i nacionalnih organa za provođenje zakona, vojske i bezbrojnih izabranih zvaničnika i članova javnosti od kojih se očekuje da odaju počast.

Počinje u subotu, u Džordžiji. Pripadnici Carterove tajne službe pratit će njegova mrtvačka kola dok putuju u koloni kroz Plains. Povorka će proći pored farme njegove porodice, gdje će članovi Službe Nacionalnog parka 39 puta zazvoniti na farmi kako bi simbolizirali njegov status 39. predsjednika. Povorka će nastaviti do Kapitola države, u Atlanti, gdje će je dočekati guverner, gradonačelnik grada, članovi državnog zakonodavstva i državni vojnici.

Carterovi posmrtni ostaci će potom biti odneseni u Carterov predsjednički centar na popodnevnu službu. Ondje će počivati do utorka, 7. januara.

Tog dana, predsjednikova porodica pratit će njegove posmrtne ostatke dok putuju specijalnim avionom zračnih snaga za Washington. U Washingtonu, posmrtni ostaci bivšeg mornaričkog oficira bit će prevezeni kolonom pogrebnih kola do Memorijala američke mornarice. Svečana povorka s konjskom vučom završit će njegovo putovanje odatle do američkog Kapitola, gdje će ga vojni nosioci tijela odnijeti u srce zgrade, rotondu. Članovi Kongresa će održati popodnevnu službu, a njegovo tijelo će tamo ležati, uz počasnu vojnu gardu, do jutra 9. januara.

Nacionalna katedrala u Washingtonu održat će nacionalnu sahranu u 10 sati. Ta struktura je bila domaćin nekoliko prethodnih državnih sahrana, uključujući one bivših predsjednika Ronalda Reagana, Geralda Forda i Georgea H.W. Busha.

Carterovoj sahrani će vjerovatno prisustvovati svih pet živih američkih predsjednika - na listi na kojoj se nalaze George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, bivši i budući predsjednik Donald Trump i Biden. Biden, sa 82 godine, sada je najstariji državnik te grupe.

Biden je nehotice otkrio, u martu prošle godine na nacionalnom događaju Demokratske stranke, da ga je Carter, također demokrata, zamolio da održi svoj hvalospjev.

U svojoj izjavi kasno u nedjelju, Biden je opisao Cartera kao "čovjeka od karaktera, hrabrosti i saosećanja, čiji ga je životni vijek službe definisao kao jednog od najuticajnijih državnika u našoj istoriji".

Nastavio je: "On je utjelovio najbolje od Amerike: poniznog slugu Boga i naroda. Herojskog šampiona globalnog mira i ljudskih prava, i časnog vođu čija su moralna jasnoća i vizija puna nade podigli našu naciju i promijenili naš svijet."

Kraj, sa Rosalynn

Carterovo posljednje putovanje događa se u Džordžiji, 9. januara popodne. Njegova porodica će održati privatnu službu u matičnoj crkvi Carterovih, Baptističkoj crkvi Maranatha.

A onda će povorka vijugati natrag tim poznatim putevima, do Plainsa, i do niske kuće koju su Carteri izgradili, gdje su odgajali svoju djecu i gdje su se nastanili nakon Bijele kuće. Američka mornarica će izvesti prelet u formaciji prije nego što Carter bude spušten na svoje posljednje počivalište, pored Rosalynn.
