Kuźniar: "I'm sure that those protests have been a manipulation"

Ph.D. Roman Kuźniar, the presidential adviser on national cases, has said, that the mass protests against ACTA have been begotten by some "dark interests". "-I'm sure that those protests have been a manipulation"-he interpolated.

Kuźniar have also said that he doesn't understand why do young people in Poland protest against ACTA while it doesn't endanger thei rights, but it will threaten the "unpunished usage of somebody's intellectual property".


"-It's easy to convince people to go out to the streets, but the cause of this is very unclear." Kuźniar compared the current situation to the one with the A/H1/N1 epidemic.- "I remember how the public opinion has tried to force the government to spend a large amount of money for the anti-influenza vaccines." He also said, that he's pretty sure that the protests against ACTA were nothing more than a manipulation.

"I'd prefer the young would protest against the govenment not accepting the act about the prohibition of using claymore mines. "-said Kuźniar. He also mentioned that he's surprised of the fact that so many young people have hit the streets, because he's thinking they wouldn't do this if they have read ACTA.

”I want to denounce in the strongest possible manner the entire process that led to the signature of this agreement: no inclusion of civil society organisations, a lack of transparency from the start of the negotiations, repeated postponing of the signature of the text without an explanation being ever given, exclusion of the EU Parliament’s demands that were expressed on several occasions in our assembly.”(...)
