And one of the first questions they asked me was, do you want us to call the U S embassy and see if they'll give you any assistance?

And I flat out told them, no, because the U.S.

Embassy is the reason I'm here.

I said, they're not going to help me.

And I have dealt with a lot of U.S.

embassies around the world for renewing my passport, my wife's visa and things.

And most Americans think that the U.S.

Embassy is like some sort of international tourist American citizen help center.

They're not.

So I had dealt with a lot of these embassies before, and I just knew they were going to have their after me.

They came to me maybe three or four hours later and said, the U.S.

embassy is here to see you.

And I'm like, I mean, I told you not to call them.

I have nothing to say to them.

And she says, well, just go talk to them.

So I'm like, OK, we go to the police chief's office and in the police chief's office is a dude from the U.S.

embassy.

Now, he was I can look at his job title, but I believe he was an RSO, a regional security service officer.

And they use these people commonly within the embassies.

He's got a background in intelligence and interrogation and that kind of stuff.
