This Just Happened in Europe

Also, why this is so important. And this is not just an awkward hobby, you know, or like a side interest of some nerds in the Congress or the European Parliament. We do know that a lot of these sightings are highly correlated with nuclear facilities. That is Fabio De Masi, a German member of the European Parliament, explaining why UFOs have been a security question for lawmakers on both sides of the Atlantic. Pilots over Europe are reporting lights that flare up, chase each other, and then vanish at high speed. Brussels has no shared system to track any of it. De Masi's question pushed the European Commission to admit it has no policy for sharing UAP data between its member states and cannot name the source of the sightings. In August, the commission declared UAP a problem for each country to handle on its own. The European Union's Aviation Safety Agency turned down requests for a UAP category in pilot reports. On the American side, Congressman Eric Burleson told the New York Post on October 10th that he is working toward a public hearing with intelligence witnesses, and they watched orange orbs fly alongside a military helicopter and one object split into two. De Masi now plans to bring American and French UAP investigators, into the European Parliament in the next year. Hey Ufologists, I'm Christina Gomez and this is your UFO News Update. Today we're covering a new interview with Fabio De Masi on the Europe's UAP data gap, the nuclear connection, and reported luring operation in the U.S. and his plan to bring the UAP investigators into the European Parliament. De Masi is an economist born in 1980 near Frankfurt, and he served on the finance committee on the German Bundestag, the National Parliament, where he built his name exposing two major financial scandals. One was the Wirecard fraud, and the other was the Cum-Ex tax scandal tied to Hamburg's Warburg Bank. He returned to the European Parliament in 2024 and became co-chair of his party in December of 2025. In 2025 and 2026, De Masi asked the Commission several times to add a dedicated UAP category to the European Union's aviation incident report. He tells Exo Magazine TV that he met pilots who felt stigmatized for reporting what they saw. The Commission's answers gave him very little, except for one admission. What was interesting indeed is that the European Commission had to admit that it has no official policy of data sharing between member states and that it cannot really name the source of the sightings and the phenomena. Euronews followed up in August. A commission spokesman told the outlet that UAP are the responsibility of each member state. The European Union Aviation Safety Agency, known as the EASA, explains that pilots can already report anything that may affect flight safety. The agency added that it has seen no evidence that UAP reports point to a safety problem, needing new measures. But pilots see it completely different. Joanne Decker, who chairs the UAP Coalition Netherlands, estimates that 90 percent of pilot sightings never get reported. Dutch airline pilot Rob Ackerman describes a 2023 flight from the middle east to the netherlands and starting south of cyprus he and five crew members watch lights flare up fade out and then move around each other he told euro news the stigma worried him more than the event itself some countries are acting on their own however, the Dutch Safety Board now accepts UAP reports from flight crews under a general category. In Germany, the Federal Aviation Office links pilots to a UAP reporting form run by the University of Würzburg. De Masi also raises the Danish drone incidents from last autumn because leaders blamed Russia within days, yet he points out that the commission doesn't claim to have evidence of where those objects came from. He told Euronews this leaves two options. Either European airspace is vulnerable or the public is being misled. De Masi is open about where he stands on the bigger question. I do think that it is highly unrealistic that we are alone in outer space, but all kinds of interpretations are possible we could encounter advanced artificial intelligence um from from somewhere you know we could also encounter man-made advanced technology that we are not aware of or drone incursions but we need proper data to really answer these questions and as long as we don't have the data i do not exclude anything his position is that none of these can be ruled in or out without real data, and he views the current American file releases in the exact same way. In his opinion, they offer images, but very little technical data. He believes a nuclear connection should worry absolutely everyone. And we don't know whether these sightings are highly correlated with nuclear facilities because in general nuclear facilities have better detection. He is careful about the cause. More sightings could come from better sensors at nuclear sites. However, he heard a leading American nuclear security expert explain that detection around these sites is much weaker than what most people assume. And that leads to the agreement he raised at the top of this. On September 30th, 1971, the US and the Soviet Union signed the agreement of measures to reduce the risk of outbreak of nuclear war. Under Article 3, both sides promised to notify each other immediately if their missile warning system detected unidentified objects that could create a risk of nuclear war. The text doesn't use the word UFO, but still, the two nuclear superpowers put in writing that an unknown object near their warning systems was serious enough to require an immediate call to the other side.

De Massey was asked about reports from members of Congress describing an operation in which UAP were lured with nuclear material and allegedly being shot down. He called it concerning but admitted he didn't have enough background to judge it. He also raised a question about who benefits from leaks like this. Sometimes we don't know what kind of vested interests are enticing the intelligence community to spread such information or to leak it out, if it is true. The public record has gaps. Congressman Eric Burlison has described a classified briefing in which officials try to set up ideal conditions for a UAP encounter. And according to him, something showed up. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise confirmed that a classified briefing on helicopter footage and reports took place earlier this year. The released government records describe orange orbs seen from helicopters, but they do not describe the mission as a lure. The shoot-down claims have not been confirmed to the public, and he found no public documents that confirmed the nuclear material detail either. De Massey wants pressure on Washington to stop acting alone and a larger role for the United Nations, including the countries that the West may not trust as much. We should also include Russia and China because only if we have some degree of trust-building measures on the international arena will we ever come closer to the truth on these matters. The U.N. idea has stalled before. The Grenada tried in 1978, and then in 2022, Italian researcher Roberto Pinotti brought a U.N. conference plan to the government of San Marino. De Massey sees France as the blueprint. On June 29, the French National Assembly held its first public UAP forum with the head of G-PAN on one of its panels. And G-PAN is France's official UAP office inside the National Space Agency, the only state-funded office of its kind in the European Union. Of more than 3,300 cases, 106 remain unexplained after a full investigation. De Massey doubts a new European agency would go far because national security services guard their data. He would rather see a special committee in the European Parliament, but few members act on their curiosity because they fear being mocked. He also backs Pinotti's civilian effort to collect UAP data worldwide, while warning that intelligence agencies and defense companies can't shape what the public hears. His next step is an event inside the European Parliament with American UAP investigators, French lawmakers, G-PAN and civilian researchers. I'm quite optimistic that we will see in the coming months, in the new year, such event taking place in the European Parliament. Whether it happens depends on how many colleagues he can bring with him. If it does, it would put American, French, and European voices on UAP in the same room in Brussels for the very first time. Should Europe build its own UAP data network or keep waiting to see what Washington chooses to release? To see how Europe reached this point, watch my video on the drone incursions over German military and energy sites. Watch this video next. I'm Christiane Gomes. That is it for today. I will see you again next time for another UFO News update. Be safe and remember, keep your eyes on the skies.
