Answer:

B. George H. Bush

Step-by-step explanation:

B. George H. Bush was US president during 1989 and 1993. He led the UN coalition during the Gulf War and removed Iraqi forces commanded by Saddam Housen who had invaded Kuwait and were responsible for various war crimes.

However, despite the success in foreign policy, the domestic economy was poorly managed during his administration, embittering fiscal deficits and an economic recession. This put the popularity of the president, who lost the race for re-election to Bill Clinton, down.
