DECISION ORDER
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's claim that his plea was not knowingly and intelligently entered because no interpreter was present at the plea proceedings is unpreserved for appellate review (see, People v. Pellegrino, 60 N.Y.2d 636 ). In any event, a review of the plea minutes reveals that the defendant fully understood his plea, and that it was knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily entered (see, People v. Harris, 61 N.Y.2d 9 ). Insofar as we are able to review the defendant's claim of ineffective assistance of counsel, we find it to be without merit (see, People v. Hayes, 186 A.D.2d 268 ).
