With all due respect to whoever did the translation of Chavez' speech at the UN that has been going around, I am here sending my translation of the actual transcription of his speech.
The translation that is going around, while it more or less gets the gist of what Chavez said, it has meany errors, looses much meaning, in many places is totally in accurate and completely discards Chavez' speaking style.
So, in the sake of keeping a faithful record of Chavez' communications, I offer this translation which will also be posted on www.chavezinenglish.org
