“But I haven’t seen them. They’re not being kept at Area 51. There’s no underground facility, unless there’s this enormous conspiracy and they hid it from the President of the United States,” he said.

Obama emphasised that during his presidency he had no knowledge of any secret programmes involving alien beings or hidden spacecraft, although he acknowledged that there is documented footage of unidentified aerial phenomena that authorities have struggled to explain.
