MALJAMAR - A lighthearted President Barack Obama on Wednesday joked that although he had landed in Roswell he could not disclose if extra-terrestrials had done the same in a flying saucer in 1947.
"I announced to people when I landed that I come in peace" said the U.S. leader, mocking an expression attributed to alien species in numerous works of fiction, including the animated blockbuster comedy "Toy Story"
Roswell, a town of 50,000 inhabitants in the state of New Mexico, is known worldwide for being the place where a spacecraft and its alien occupants were allegedly recovered 65 years ago and then hidden by the US government.
"Let me tell you, there are nine- and 10-year-old boys... when I meet them they ask me, have you been to Roswell, and is it true what they say" Obama said.
"And I tell them, If I told you I'd have to kill you. And you know, their eyes get all big" the president added in Maljamar, a town 80 kilometers (50 miles) away from Roswell, where he was trumpeting his energy policy.
"We're gonna keep our secrets here" he concluded.
