It is, however, not clear whether the files will be released to the public yet. Trump has said that the files should include “any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters”
US President Donald Trump has ordered the release of all data related to UFOs and aliens after a considerable number of Americans showed interest in the files.
“Based on the tremendous interest shown, I will be directing the Secretary of War, and other relevant Departments and Agencies, to begin the process of identifying and releasing Government files related to alien and extraterrestrial life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), and unidentified flying objects (UFOs),” Trump posted on his Truth Social platform.
It is, however, not clear whether the files will be released to the public yet. Trump has said that the files should include “any and all other information connected to these highly complex, but extremely interesting and important, matters.”
Obama says ‘aliens are real’
Former US President Barack Obama said that he believes
aliens are real, but maintained that he has no idea where they are. Obama made the shocking remark in a podcast hosted by YouTuber Brian Tyler Cowen.
“They’re real, but I haven’t seen them,” Obama told the YouTuber after he asked him about extraterrestrials. However, the former president did not offer any further details on what exactly he meant when he said that the aliens are “real”.
No follow-up question on the topic was asked as well. But the proclamation by the former American president cast doubt on several longstanding theories about where they might be.
“They’re not being kept in Area 51, there’s no underground facility, unless there’s this enormous conspiracy and they hid it from the president of the United States,” Obama said. It is pertinent to note that Area 51 refers to a highly secretive Air Force base in Groom Lake, Nevada. It has long been the subject of interest for conspiracy theorists who believe the government is hiding alien aircraft and bodies on the premises.
What has Trump said?
Earlier in the day, the Republican president claimed that one of his Democratic predecessors,
Obama, had revealed “classified” information in his recent viral podcast remarks about the existence of extraterrestrial life.
Asked on Thursday about the comments, Trump told reporters that Obama “gave classified information, he is not supposed to be doing that.”
The president did not specify what part of Obama’s remarks were classified, but claimed “he made a big mistake.”
For his own beliefs about aliens, Trump, 79, said, “I don’t know if they are real or not.”
