The first part of the article reports about Nick Pope’s views on the recently released UK MoD UFO files.

Quote from the article:

“In reality, Pope says, ‘the UK’s Freedom of Information Act contains wide-ranging exemptions covering areas such as defense, security and intelligence’ and the newly-available documents had already been ‘judged to be unclassified’ before their release.”
