Former US defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld, who led the nation in wars in Afghanistan and Iraq during the presidency of George W Bush, has died.

He died at the age of 88 in New Mexico, as was announced Wednesday by his family.

“History may remember him for his extraordinary accomplishments over six decades of public service, but for those who knew him best… we will remember his unwavering love for his wife Joyce, his family and friends, and the integrity he brought to a life dedicated to the country,” the family said in a statement.
