据为罗伯特·吉尔曼获释奔走的人质危机专家表示,这位在俄罗斯被关押了四年多的美国海军陆战队退伍军人,在本周获释前已几乎濒临“鬼门关”。
协助营救吉尔曼的机构“全球影响力”(Global Reach)首席调查官基兰·拉姆齐称,现年32岁的吉尔曼目前已抵达得克萨斯州,接下来将经历漫长的康复过程。
吉尔曼是来自马萨诸塞州的一名教师,2022年起在俄罗斯被扣押。上周,“全球影响力”首席战略官埃里克·莱布森表示吉尔曼被关押在俄罗斯一家医院,处于“解离性木僵”状态,只能通过鼻饲进食,其健康状况引发关注。
“我们几乎是眼看着他走到了鬼门关,才终于促成了能让他获释的适当行动,”拉姆齐周四对哥伦比亚广播公司新闻说道,“我们非常感激他现在已经回到了美国国土。”
拉姆齐表示,吉尔曼正在圣安东尼奥的布鲁克陆军医疗中心接受治疗,目前“正获得全球最顶尖的医疗护理”。

莱布森上周声称,俄罗斯当局对吉尔曼施加了虐待,包括骚扰、长达16小时的强制训练,以及强制服用精神类药物。莱布森还指控俄方逼迫吉尔曼前往乌克兰作战。
哥伦比亚广播公司新闻尚未独立核实这些说法。俄罗斯官员尚未公开回应。
美国国务院发言人对哥伦比亚广播公司新闻表示,特朗普政府曾多次就吉尔曼的案件向俄罗斯政府提出交涉,并以吉尔曼的健康状况存在问题为由,要求俄方基于人道主义理由释放他。
“罗伯特的处境远超我们此前见过的任何一名在俄罗斯被扣押的美国人的情况,”莱布森说道。
特朗普政府此前曾成功营救多名在俄罗斯被扣押的美国人。目前仍有多名美国人被关押在俄罗斯。
“我们在俄罗斯还有10名被扣押人员,”拉姆齐说道,“我们在伊朗有两名被列为优先营救对象的人员,在中国有一名。我们希望他能尽快将所有人都安全带回家。”

U.S. Marine veteran Robert Gilman was almost on “death’s door” before Russia released him, advocate says

Robert Gilman, a U.S. Marine veteran who was imprisoned in Russia for over four years, was nearly on “death’s door” before he was released this week, according to a hostage crisis expert who advocated for Gilman’s release.
The 32-year-old is now in Texas, where he faces a long road to recovery, said Kieran Ramsey, chief investigative officer with Global Reach, an organization that worked to free him.
Gilman, a teacher from Massachusetts, was detained in Russia starting in 2022. Concerns over his health came into focus last week when Global Reach’s chief strategy officer, Eric Lebson, said Gilman was being held at a Russian hospital in “dissociative stupor” and being fed through a tube.
“We had to wait ’til almost we were on death’s door with him to be able to spur the right kind of action that got his release,” Ramsey told CBS News on Thursday. “And we’re just thankful he’s back on U.S. soil right now.”
Gilman is being treated at the Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio where he is “getting the world’s best medical care,” Ramsey said.

Lebson claimed last week that Russian authorities subjected Gilman to mistreatment, including harassment, forced exercise sessions lasting up to 16 hours and the administration of psychotropic drugs. Lebson also alleged Gilman was pressured to fight in Ukraine.
CBS News has not independently verified those claims. Russian officials have not publicly responded.
A State Department spokesperson told CBS News the Trump administration had raised his case with the Russian government repeatedly, and requested he be released on humanitarian grounds, given Gilman’s health concerns.
“The situation with Robert is far beyond anything we have seen with any other American detained in Russia,” Lebson said.
The Trump administration previously secured the release of several other Americans held in Russia. Multiple others are still being held in the country.
“We have 10 others in Russia,” said Ramsey. “We have two designated in Iran. We have one designated in China. Let’s hope that he’s able to bring all of these folks home as soon as possible.”
