The official rarely makes statements that can discredit them in the eyes of people and talk about extraterrestrial civilizations, the existence of which has not been proven by science. The same applies to modern technologies that could have been on Earth in ancient times, according to some hypotheses.
There is a theory that civilization and technologies on our planet develop in a cycle, and when people reach great heights in their development, various man-made or natural disasters occur that put humanity on the brink of extinction and the development of civilization begins anew.
Recently, Iraqi Transport Minister Kazem Finjan made a sensational statement that his ancestors possessed the technology to fly into space more than 5 millennia ago. Kazem assures the public that ancient civilizations possessed technologies that modern science has not yet reached.
Finjan spoke about his version of events in front of hundreds of journalists and is sure that the Sumerian civilization built cosmodromes for space flights. As his arguments, the politician cited the example of a book by Zechariah Sitchin, who studies Sumerian technologies and is looking for evidence that they possessed knowledge that is not available in the modern world.
The Sumerians possessed a huge amount of knowledge and founded their civilization about 6 thousand years ago. Their knowledge of mathematics and astronomy causes a lot of controversy among scientists, historians and supporters of extraterrestrial civilizations. Some images of this civilization depict creatures that look like aliens.
Moreover, there are images that resemble spaceships. The records of this ancient civilization describe the Annunaki who lived on the planet Nibiru and created humans. So maybe this is one of the few politicians who does not hesitate to talk about our past, which may not be at all what historians imagine it to be?
