He was one of the very few world leaders to stand up against the U.S. The "El Diablo" speech at the UN was one of the best ever. But aside from the humour at the beginning of that speech he made a very important point which got glossed over by the so-called media. He stated that America was one of the most wasteful country he's ever been to and had ever seen. On his way to the UN from his hotel he observed that he was stuck in traffic surrounded by thousands of cars in Manhattan almost all of them with only 1 occupant.
