Iraqi Politician Says Ancient Aliens Had an Airport on Earth!

A new airport is being constructed in southern Iraq, prompting Iraq’s Transport Minister, Kazem Finjan, to make comments about the cite, stating "the first airport that was established on planet earth was in this place. It was constructed 5,000 years before Christ" before suggesting that people read Sumerian historian Zecharia Sitchin, who is often given original credit for the theory that "Ancient Aliens" existed and have perhaps even interacted with mankind throughout the ages.

This comes shortly after statements made by a Russian politician and the former EU president, which implied modern-day contact with extraterrestrial civilizations is currently happening on the world stage (though obviously behind the curtains).

What does it mean when world leaders start talking about "Ancient Aliens" and how they are in contact with ET? Are these statements to be trusted? Is UFO and alien disclosure coming to the world?
