US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has said that he will learn alongside the American public whether his department holds records proving the existence of aliens.
Last week, President Donald Trump issued an executive order directing the Pentagon to release “any and all other information connected” with unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) and unidentified flying objects (UFOs). Hegseth told journalists the instruction was not “on my bingo card at all” and cautioned against expecting a swift release.
Asked whether he believes aliens exist, the secretary replied: “We’ll see. I get to do the review and find out along with you.”
Trump’s order followed a podcast in which former President Barack Obama said he believed aliens were real but assured the US government does not hold any in custody.
