It doesn’t, or else there would be a lot more sightings all over Europe, South Korea and Japan, Australia and New Zealand, Israel, Saudi Arabia and various emirates, and a good junk of China.

It most definitely still correlates with wealth, regardless of that factors
Regardless, simple google searches of “UAP sightings South America/Asia/India/ etc” will yield many results - this is not a US phenomnon
