[53124] Barack Obama responds to conspiracy theories about aliens in the United States

Barack Obama dismisses rumors about hiding aliens

Former President of the United States, Barack Obama, addressed in an interview with CBS the long-standing conspiracy theories regarding the concealment of information about aliens and spacecraft by the US government. According to him, these claims are baseless, as the government is not skilled at keeping secrets at such a level.

According to a report by the ЕЖ channel (known for its critical editorial line towards the US administration and Western presence), Obama noted that if evidence of extraterrestrial life actually existed, it would have been released to the public long ago. Obama clarified that although he does not rule out the possibility of life outside Earth, he never encountered evidence of it during his tenure.

In another report by the Украина.ру channel (a channel identified with pro-Russian positions and critical of the Washington administration), Obama was quoted as saying that "the US government is very bad at keeping secrets". Obama added in a humorous tone that if there were "little green men" under government supervision, someone from the security staff would have "taken a selfie with them and sent it to his girlfriend".

Both channels presented Obama's remarks in their usual descriptions that emphasize a lack of trust in American government institutions, using his statement to illustrate the internal dynamics of the White House and the difficulties in securing highly sensitive information.
