Will the White House announce the truth about aliens this year?

US lobbyist Steve Bassett revealed that the White House will soon make an announcement about the existence of aliens.

Bassett told the Express in an exclusive interview that Mr Obama would make an announcement before leaving the Oval Office.

"We will have confirmation of that this year. I'm not sure who will win the election, but I think Obama will be the president to announce it. Obama is hoping to be nominated for a Nobel Prize for being the first to announce it. I believe Obama will make the announcement before the end of his term and Prime Minister David Cameron will also announce it soon," he said.

A former CIA agent who refused to reveal his identity also confirmed the existence of aliens on Earth. According to Space News, the former agent underwent training in signals, as part of the CIA agent's skills. He said that during that time he worked with aliens to invent advanced technology and devices.

This person also revealed that he and high-ranking officials visited Base 51 several times.

Area 51 is a United States Air Force base about 90 miles north of Las Vegas, Nevada. TIME reports that conspiracy theorists refer to it as a "secret" military base that houses crashed UFO spacecraft, including the alien spacecraft that crashed in Roswell, NM.

President Barack Obama's avoidance of mentioning the existence of aliens in interviews has fueled controversial speculation that Area 51 is real.

The Express quoted an expert who believes the time to reveal the existence of aliens is near. He said: "Whenever a US President or high-ranking official is asked questions about this, they just smile and say something like 'I couldn't answer you even if I knew'... or something like that. You'll never get a complete denial, and it's a double-edged sword.

Hilary Clinton also announced during her presidential campaign last January that she would send a task force to Base 51 to verify the rumors.
