Taliban hostage George Glezmann landed at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland on Friday after more than 800 days in captivity in Afghanistan, where he received a “champion’s welcome,” according to Fox News.
“I feel born again,” Glezmann told a reporter. “I have no words.
“President Trump is amazing,” he added before thanking Secretary of State Marco Rubio, National Security Advisor Mike Waltz and hostage envoy Adam Boehler.Â
Watch:
“A free American individual…abducted because of my U.S. passport.”
“I’ve got no words to express my gratitude for my liberty,” Glezmann added.
His wife, Aleksandra, was not in attendance at the time of his arrival, but Fox News was told she had landed in Washington, D.C. on her way to meet her husband after more than two years since his Dec. 5, 2022, capture in Kabul.
Ryan Corbett, who was released in January after nearly 900 days in Taliban captivity greeted Glezmann upon arrival.
Both Glezmann and Corbett were held together in Afghanistan.
