Mario Borghezio

Mario Borghezio is an Italian politician and former Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for the Northern League (Lega Nord). Born in 1947, he gained prominence in UFO advocacy by urging the European Union to declassify UFO files and open public archives on sightings. In 2010, he called for all EU member states to lift secrecy on UFO encounters, enabling citizens and media access to government-held documents. Borghezio publicly stated that 'everyone knows UFOs exist and they are hiding them,' pushing for transparency in military and government programs. His efforts highlighted historical cases, such as Italy's fascist-era RS/33 commission under Mussolini investigating UFOs. No notable publications or formal testimony in UAP research are recorded, but his parliamentary interrogations advanced disclosure demands.
