Episode notes
Bullying Drives Countries To China
- Glenn Greenwald warns U.S. heavy-handed actions in Latin America push nations toward China by seeming imperialistic rather than cooperative.
- He argues soft-power development aid and respectful diplomacy reduce Chinese influence more effectively than coercion.
Regime Coercion Without Regime Change
- Glenn says the current Venezuela approach seeks leverage without full regime removal: keep the regime but coerce concessions on oil access.
- He questions whether this "gun-to-the-head" playbook will work or will further delegitimize U.S. aims there.
If You Want Oil, Buy It — Don't Sanction It
- Glenn points out the U.S. could simply buy Venezuelan oil on the open market if access were the real goal instead of sanctions that choke the economy.
- He frames current seizures as politically motivated rather than purely economic or security-driven.
