EU Report Raises Security and Scientific Concerns over Unidentified Aerial Phenomena

A newly published European report on Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) has called for urgent institutional action across the EU, citing national security implications, scientific unknowns, and gaps in airspace surveillance. The 110-page report, titled “Comprehensive Assessment of Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) and Related Evidence”, was commissioned by Royal Decree WL22/16.594 and published by the European Centre for Information Policy and Security (ECIPS).
Official Endorsement and Legal Mandate
The document, which is marked as a “Strategic Defence Report,” draws on military sensor data, historical records, and independent civilian research. ECIPS President Ricardo Baretzky confirmed the report’s strategic relevance:
“This report marks the first European baseline assessment on the security implications of UAP and their measurable impact on civil and military infrastructure.”
Historical and Modern Evidence
The report provides a chronological review of UAP-related incidents, beginning with early 20th-century sightings and continuing through to classified military encounters in the 21st century. It includes references to radar and infrared sensor data, with cases showing unidentified objects demonstrating capabilities beyond current aerospace technology.
In one example from 2021, a UAP was recorded accelerating from a stationary position to over 24,000 kilometres per hour within seconds, without producing observable heat signatures or sonic booms. The report states:
“No known propulsion system—whether chemical, electric, or nuclear—can account for the acceleration profiles observed.”
National Security and Airspace Integrity
One of the central concerns raised is the vulnerability of European airspace. According to the assessment:
“Multiple UAP incidents have occurred within restricted airspace and near critical infrastructure, yet no hostile intent or identifiable origin has been confirmed.”
The authors warn that current radar and satellite monitoring systems are insufficient to track these fast-moving and often non-reflective objects. The report notes that some objects can operate both underwater and in the atmosphere—known as transmedium travel—a feature not found in conventional aircraft.
Scientific Evaluation and Hypotheses
While the report does not speculate on extraterrestrial origins, it categorically affirms the physical reality of the phenomena:
It rules out weather balloons, drones, or sensor malfunctions in numerous recorded cases, citing multi-sensor corroboration (radar, electro-optical, and thermal imaging). The report also highlights the limitations of current physics in explaining observed behaviours:
“These vehicles violate known aerodynamic limits and may reflect the presence of a new class of physics.”
Policy Recommendations
In light of its findings, ECIPS proposes a series of measures for the European Union and its member states:
The report recommends the creation of a publicly accessible incident database and proposes a legal framework to standardise UAP reporting across the EU aviation sector.
Although the report stops short of confirming the origin or intent of UAPs, it concludes that their repeated appearance in sensitive airspace constitutes a strategic concern.
“The potential consequences of misidentifying UAPs or failing to detect them in real time are significant, ranging from mid-air collisions to misattribution in conflict zones.”
This marks the first time an EU-recognised institution has officially called for continent-wide coordination on UAP policy and research. A follow-up report is expected in late 2025, with technical workshops to be held in Brussels, Berlin, and Madrid.

Scientific Evaluation and Hypotheses
While the report does not speculate on extraterrestrial origins, it categorically affirms the physical reality of the phenomena:
“The existence of UAP as observable and measurable aerospace phenomena is no longer in question.”
It rules out weather balloons, drones, or sensor malfunctions in numerous recorded cases, citing multi-sensor corroboration (radar, electro-optical, and thermal imaging). The report also highlights the limitations of current physics in explaining observed behaviours:
“These vehicles violate known aerodynamic limits and may reflect the presence of a new class of physics.”
Policy Recommendations
In light of its findings, ECIPS proposes a series of measures for the European Union and its member states:
- Establishment of a permanent UAP Task Force within ECIPS.
- Integration of military, civil, and private sensor data into a shared European detection network.
- Investment to develop UAP-specific detection and analysis platforms.
- Collaboration with global research initiatives and allied intelligence agencies.
The report recommends the creation of a publicly accessible incident database and proposes a legal framework to standardise UAP reporting across the EU aviation sector.
