Venezuelan Students Vow to Depose Chávez, ‘At Any Cost’

This is cross-posted from Ulf Erlingsson’s blog:

This text was distributed on the internet this evening. It declares that a student organization with tens of thousands of members has been created in Venezuela, and that they do NOT recognize Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias as the legitimate president of Venezuela, vowing to remove him from office “at any cost”, through civil disobedience.

La Central Estudiantil Universitaria (CEU), recién creada y que agrupa adecenas de miles de estudiantes de las universidades del país, acaba de declarar a Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías como enemigo público número uno del país.

La CEU ha determinado que Chávez debe ser destituido de la Presidencia de la República por cualquier medio viable por haber entregado el país a los cubanos, traicionado la Constitución y pretender implantar una dictadura militar de extrema izquierda contra la voluntad popular.

La organización universitaria llama a cada ciudadano del país a la oportuna y justa desobedicencia civil en las calles hasta la renuncia o destronamiento del tirano para salvar la democracia en el país.

Añade que ya no tiene sentido desgastarse en pedir que retiren la habilitante ni el “paquetazo” de leyes cubanas que vienen detrás, pues el régimen no está dispuesto a considerarlo siquiera. Por ello insisten en que TODA LUCHA EN LAS CALLES DEBE ENFOCARSE EN EXIGIR LA RENUNCIA DEL DICTADOR PROCUBANO HUGO CHÁVEZ CUESTE LO QUE CUESTE.

GulagBound used the Google Spanish to English free translator (while moving a few of the words around to help with context) and came up with this translation:

The Central University Students (CEU), which includes newly created adecenas of thousands of students from universities across the country, has just declared Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias as public enemy number one in the country.

The CEU has determined that Chavez should be removed from the Presidency of the Republic by any viable means for having given the land to the Cubans, betrayed the Constitution and trying to implement a left-wing military dictatorship against the popular will.

University organizations called on every citizen of the country to timely and fair civil disobedience in the streets to the force the resignation or overthrow of the tyrant, in order to save democracy in the country.

Also, it no longer makes sense to ask to withdraw the enabling or the “packaged deal” Cuban laws that come back, because the regime is unwilling to even consider. Therefore, insist that ALL FIGHT IN THE STREETS AND TO FOCUS ON DEMANDING THE RESIGNATION OF pro-Cuban DICTATOR HUGO CHAVEZ.
