8. (SOUNDBITE) (English) WASHINGTON POST EXECUTIVE EDITOR, MARTIN BARON, SAYING: “Both of us had the ability to talk with Jason last night. He sounded in very high spirits, very encouraged, wanted to see his brother who has been working tirelessly on his behalf, wants to see us, his colleagues, his professional colleagues and really craves human contact. He seemed ok.” // 10. (SOUNDBITE) (English) WASHINGTON POST EXECUTIVE EDITOR, MARTIN BARON, SAYING: “He has been in a prison for 545 days under terrible conditions and he has obviously suffered physically and we don’t what else he has gone through, so there is a protocol that has to be followed for people that have gone through circumstances like that and we want to make sure that he is in good health and we are judging by a single telephone call.” // 13. (SOUNDBITE) (English) BROTHER TO RELEASED PRISONER JASON REZAIAN, ALI REZAIAN, SAYING: “You know, it’s been 18 months since I talked to him so it was really great. Jason is in good spirits, he obviously is concerned, so we have to make sure that he works hard to get better. But he is also the same guy. He is not too depressed, seriously in a good state of mind.” // 15. (SOUNDBITE) (English) BROTHER TO RELEASED PRISONER JASON REZAIAN, ALI REZAIAN, SAYING: “You know, so the folks here still have a process they go through. The first thing is to make sure that they are physically and psychologically doing well and then they start the treatment. So Jason came in like 15 hours ago, he has been talking with doctors and psychiatrists, and they will determine what the next steps are, what the best thing for him is so that he can be successful in transitioning back.” // 17. (SOUNDBITE) (English) BROTHER TO RELEASED PRISONER JASON REZAIAN, ALI REZAIAN, SAYING: “For 18 months he was held nearly in solitary confinement, with one person in the room with him. So it is really going to be a process to get back to spending time with people but also understanding what is really going on in the world. You know, he saw Iranian TV, Iranian news organisation. That is all the information that he had, so he didn’t really know what was going on in the world. So he is really looking forward to catching up with the news, understanding what is going on.” // 19. (SOUNDBITE) (English) BROTHER TO RELEASED PRISONER JASON REZAIAN, ALI REZAIAN, SAYING: “You know, you have got three guys here that really didn’t do anything wrong. They have been stuck in prison in Iran, some of them for years. I am thankful for the government, the U.S. government, all the work that they have done, the support that they have given to get Jason and the other folks on their way home now.”
