===Statements by US Presidents=== Widespread speculation of a cover-up led to United States presidents being questioned about the Roswell incident.<ref>{{harvnb|Goldberg|2001|pp=223-225}}</ref> In a 2014 interview, [[Bill Clinton]] said, "When the Roswell thing came up, I knew we'd get gazillions of letters. So I had all the Roswell papers reviewed, everything". Clinton's administration found no evidence of alien contact or a crashed ship.<ref>{{harvnb|Kopan|2014}}</ref><ref>{{harvnb|Clarke|2015|loc=ch. 6, paras. 17β19}}</ref> When asked during a 2015 interview with ''[[GQ]]'' magazine about whether he had looked at top-secret classified information, Obama replied, "I gotta tell you, it's a little disappointing. People always ask me about Roswell and the aliens and UFOs, and it turns out the stuff going on that's top secret isn't nearly as exciting as you expect. In this day and age, it's not as top secret as you'd think."<ref>{{harvnb|Simmons|2015}}</ref> In December 2020, Obama joked with [[Stephen Colbert]], "It used to be that UFOs and Roswell was the biggest conspiracy. And now that seems so tame, the idea that the government might have an alien spaceship."<ref>{{harvnb|Diaz|2020}}</ref> In June 2020, [[Donald Trump]], when asked if he would consider releasing more information about the Roswell incident, said, "I won't talk to you about what I know about it, but it's very interesting."<ref>{{harvnb|Madhani|2020}}</ref>
