US President Donald Trump has called on the federal government to lift the secrecy from all the secret files related to American Emile Irehart, and its disappearance about 90 years ago, which is still being shrouded in mystery and extensive speculation.
Trump, in a post on “Truth Social”, said that he was often asked about “Amelia Erehart’s life and events”, which in 1937 was trying to become the first woman to fly around the world when her plane disappeared over the Pacific.
Most historians believe that they have disappeared after running out of fuel and crashed into the ocean, while a report of the American Navy concluded that it was lost in the sea, according to the New York Times.
“Emilia cut nearly three quarters of the road around the world before it suddenly disappeared and without warning, and it has not seen a trace again,” Trump wrote, adding that the story of her disappearance was “millions of people.”
It was not immediately clear the number of files related to Ertart, which are still secret, or maintained by federal agencies.
Mindy Loew Bandargraft, CEO of the Amelia Earhart Hangar Museum in Ashzon, Kansas, said in an email message that she was surprised by the President’s announcement.
“If these files will put any light on the fate of Erhart, this will be a welcome to historians and Irhart lovers.”
She pointed out that the 18 -day research for Erhart after her disappearance cost more than 4 million US dollars, which is the most expensive in the history of the federal government at the time.
The Smithsonian Foundation, which is known as one of the largest and most important educational and research institutions in the world, and the cultural and scientific heart of the United States, describes Amelia Earhart as “perhaps the most famous flying in the history of aviation.”
In 1932, she became the first woman, and the second person ever flying without stopping across the Atlantic Ocean.
She was trying to take a trip around the world when she disappeared.
