Hans Humes, chairman and CEO of Greylock Capital, was interviewed on January 5, 2026, following the arrest of Venezuelan president Nicolas Maduro in New York. The discussion covered the surprise and global implications of the US operation, the roles of key Venezuelan figures like Delsy Rodriguez, and the challenges of transitioning Venezuela from decades of authoritarian rule. Humes highlighted the complexities of regime change, the resilience of Venezuela’s economic operators under sanctions, and the influence of foreign powers such as China and Russia. He noted that the US move could reshape global energy dynamics and reflects broader geopolitical competition, particularly with China.
