[Q] Dobrze, społeczeństwo patrzy na ten Okrągły Stół no dosyć tak obojętnie, to znaczy trudno jej... trudno jej jakby wierzyć w to, że...
To nie jest to, jak państwo mówicie społeczeństwo, to nie jest prawda, jako że z wszystkich badań wynika, że przeciwnie, że ten Okrągły Stół wywołał olbrzymie oczekiwania, olbrzymie nadzieje i z taką społeczną dużą akceptacją.
[Q] So society regards the Round Table with a degree of indifference, it's hard to believe that...
That's not how it is, it's not the way you say that society, it's not true, since every study shows the opposite, that the Round Table evoked enormous expectation, enormous hope and that there was significant approval on the part of society.
