Greg Myrie

Greg Myrie, an NPR correspondent specializing in U.S. policy, and Kerry Kahn, who reports from Brazil on Latin America, dive into the escalating U.S.-Venezuela tensions. They discuss Trump's tanker blockade and Venezuela's fierce nationalistic responses. Myrie reveals the number of vulnerable tankers under U.S. sanctions, while Kahn emphasizes the improbability of economic pressure alone ousting Maduro. The two explore whether oil could be used as a leverage point for negotiations and the limits of U.S. military action in the region.
