Este es un extracto del discurso dado por un grupo de militares en abril de 2002, justo antes de que el Presidente Chávez fuera destituido momentáneamente del poder:
"Hemos decidido dirigirnos al pueblo venezolano, para **desconocer el actual régimen de gobierno** y la autoridad de Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías y del alto mando militar."
No sé cuál verbo emplear en inglés. He conseguido disavow, repudiate, ignore, pero ninguno me termina de convencer.

to not recognize the regime currently in government
which answer you choose is a question of style. However, "conocer" here MUST be translated as "recognize", as this is the one and only term used in international relations.
