I suggested using EBS snapshot cross-region copying or replicated S3 buckets. The interviewer suggesting copying it to an EBS disk and reattaching it to an instance in another region. This is factually impossible as AWS does not allow disks to be attached outside of the region (and AZ) they're created in.
