An American who returned to US soil last week after being held by Russian-backed forces for more than three months said Monday that it’s “surreal” to be back home. “Honestly, it’s still surreal. It’s going to take time to adjust,” Andy Tai Ngoc Huynh told CNN’s Erin Burnett on “OutFront” Monday evening. “But overall, I’m very happy to be with Joy,” he said of his fiancée, Joy Black. “I missed her every day when I was in captivity. But nonetheless, I’m very happy.
Their pro-Russian captors, the so-called Donetsk People’s Republic , is a Russian-backed, self-declared republic that has governed a breakaway portion of Ukraine’s Donetsk region since 2014. Huynh declined to share details Monday night about his time in captivity, saying he had not yet been fully debriefed by the US government. Huynh and Drueke arrived in New York City on Friday before being reunited with their family and friends at an airport in Birmingham, Alabama, on Saturday.
