W szokującym oświadczeniu opublikowanym w czwartek wieczorem na platformie Truth Social prezydentDonald Trumpnakazał agencjom rządowym, w tym Pentagonowi, rozpoczęcie procesu identyfikacji i uwolnienia tajnych dokumentów dotyczących UFO, niezidentyfikowanych zjawisk powietrznych (UAP) oraz życia pozaziemskiego. Decyzja ta, motywowana „ogromnym zainteresowaniem publicznym”, może zmienić sposób, w jaki świat postrzega jedną z największych zagadek ludzkości.
"On the basis of the great interest shown, I order the Secretary of War and other relevant departments and agencies to begin the process of identifying and releasing government files concerning extraterrestrial life and alien life, unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP), unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and any other information related to these extremely complex but extremely interesting and important matters," Trump literally wrote in his post.
The statement appeared only a few hours after Trump harshly criticized former President Barack Obama. In a recent podcast conversation, Obama suggested that "foreigners are real", although he emphasized that he saw no evidence of contact with them during his presidency. Trump regarded these words as revealing classified information and stated that declassified files could "bring Obama out of trouble".
Sam Trump, asked by reporters aboard Air Force One, was cautious."I don't know if they're real or not. I don't have an opinion on that. I never talk about it. A lot of people believe that."– he said.
Trump's decision is part of a long-standing debate on UFOs. After the 2017 U.S. Navy records leaked, Congress organized hearings in 2022, and the Pentagon set up a special AARO office to investigate the anomaly. Recent reports have not confirmed the presence of extraterrestrial technology – most observations have been balloons, drones or natural phenomena. Nevertheless, ufology enthusiasts and ordinary Americans have been demanding full transparency for years.
The White House has not yet provided a timetable for the publication of documents or the scope to be declassified. Karoline Leavitt's press secretary jokingly commented on reports of alleged "foreign alien speech" to be prepared by President Lara Trump's daughter: "Agion talk? This is new to me."
The world is looking forward to it. Is there evidence in the Pentagon archives of intelligent life beyond Earth? Or will de-de-de-de-de-de-de-de-cancer only confirm what scientists have been saying for years – that the universe is huge, but contact remains in the fantasy realm? One thing is certain: Trump's decision ignited the imagination of millions and opened a new chapter in the history of ufology.
