Barack Obama is to make a decision over the declassification of a number of documents in relation to the 9/11 attacks.

28 pages of sealed documents could be opened within the next 60 days and the contents are rumoured to expose Saudi Arabia’s connection to the 9/11 attacks.

The decision comes after a number of years of campaigning from former Florida senator Bob Graham, who said he was ‘pleased that after two years this matter is about to come to a decision by the president’ in an interview with Fox News.

Graham and other campaigners believe the flies expose Saudi Arabia’s connection to the September 11th attacks of 2001.

‘The Saudis know what they did. We know what they did,’ Graham said in a television interview to 60 Minutes.  ‘There are a lot of rocks out there that have been purposefully tamped down, that if were they turned over, would give us a more expansive view of the Saudi role.’

Graham believes the documents will prove the perpetrators of the World Trade Centre attacks were “substantially” helped by Saudi Arabia.
