I believe in your freedom, just as I believed in our freedom, and very often it was necessary to encourage the last bit of dissipating hope (meaning that Czechs are in no way a warrior nation willing to make sacrifices...) And, when Burma is free, it will also need free—and here I mean inwardly free— citizens who are capable of building new democratic structures. It is now the time to begin thinking not only about changes but also about what will come afterwards. Otherwise, the exhilaration that comes with changes will be followed by frustration.
