Translation challenge:
...we must grasp it historically. Every group has its tales, of what happened
for instance two hundred years ago. But we know hardly anything of the
history of the past two hundred years of the Roma or the Sinti. Their old
culture is ?completely unknown. Today it is necessary ... to say 'It doesn't
matter how you feel, what's important is that people can look back in a
hundred years. It [Roma culture?] should exist openly in Austria. Our history
is also bound up with this country...
