Aldo Rebelo Says He Knows What's Inside US UFO Files, Vows Brazil Reveal if Elected President

Brazilian presidential hopeful Aldo Rebelo has made waves by claiming insider knowledge of US government UFO files, promising full disclosure to the Brazilian public if he wins the presidency.

Rebelo told reporters, 'As a former Minister of Defence, I am provoked to speak on the subject. I know what the Armed Forces have in their archives. What I can say is that if the US government releases its documents, I will do the same if elected president of Brazil.' He emphasised that governments have long held secrets about advanced technology, noting that knowledge of extraterrestrial phenomena stretches back decades, even before the Second World War.

Rebelo Claims Insider Knowledge of UFO Files

The politician suggested that international cooperation has occasionally aligned nations' approaches to alien encounters, though he clarified that most government secrecy concerns advanced terrestrial technology rather than confirmed alien contact.

Rebelo's comments have drawn attention both within Brazil and abroad, raising questions about how much information governments possess and how far officials might go to keep it confidential.

Global UFO Developments Prompt Speculation

President Donald Trump, announced that his administration would begin the process of identifying and releasing documents related to UFOs, UAPs, and extraterrestrial life. Trump's statements followed years of congressional hearings on unidentified aerial phenomena, which produced numerous blurry videos and eyewitness claims but limited concrete evidence.

Astrobiologists and analysts have stressed that true disclosure would require scientifically verifiable material, not just anecdotal accounts or low-resolution footage. As one expert explained, 'Extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence.' While more than 90 per cent of sightings have conventional explanations, the small fraction of genuinely unexplained incidents continues to fuel speculation. Former officials' dramatic claims about alien spacecraft or biological specimens, often based on hearsay, have not yet provided verifiable proof.

Rebelo's promise to disclose files, therefore, taps into a growing public desire for transparency and hard evidence, rather than the repeated conjecture and sensationalism that dominate UFO discussions online.

Evidence and Public Fascination

While Rebelo's comments focus on government archives, recent UFO sightings in the United States have maintained public interest. In November 2024, residents of New Jersey and other East Coast states reported unidentified drones flying at night.

Local officials were unable to identify the craft, leading to widespread speculation about alien activity.

Trump has said that thegovernment 'knows what is happening' but has been reluctant to share details. Former President Barack Obama joked that aliens are 'real' but clarified there was no evidence of contact during his administration. Such statements underscore the tension between curiosity and official caution.

Analysts suggest that fully credible disclosure would require more than videos and second-hand reports; tangible, independently verified data such as radar records or physical artefacts would be needed to satisfy both scientific and public scrutiny.

What Full Disclosure Could Mean for Brazil

If elected, Rebelo's pledge to mirror US disclosure raises questions about how Brazil would handle sensitive information. He promised that any files released would be shared with the public, potentially putting Brazil at the centre of global UFO discussions.

Experts note that such transparency could provoke both excitement and concern, particularly if files contain material that challenges current scientific understanding or national security frameworks.

Rebelo's statements arrive as political campaigns in Brazil increasingly hinge on bold claims and promises of transparency. In the age of social media, even speculative announcements can spark global debates about aliens, government secrecy, and the potential for historic disclosure.
