Former US President Barack Obama said aliens are real but they are not kept hidden in Area 51. In a recent podcast with YouTuber Brian Tyler Cohen, Obama shared his thoughts on extraterrestrials. "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 stated in a quick Q&A session. When asked what question he wanted answered first as president, he replied with a laugh, "Where are the aliens?" Obama did not provide any more details on the subject, and the host moved to the next question. This clears some myths about aliens being held secretly by the US government.
