On 17 December 1989, the Sejm presented a grand unveiling of the economic programme. The atmosphere was celebratory. Marshal Kozakiewicz asked me how he was to justify to the members of parliament that the session had been convened for Sunday. How? So that the members of parliament would know how important this matter was. In a speech broadcast on television, I said that we wanted to build an economy that was not some textbook one, but one known from experiences from beyond the Elbe and the Baltic Sea. I also reminded them that the task of transforming the economic system - difficult in itself - was met in extremely unfavourable conditions: with rampant inflation, a lack of foreign exchange reserves, and a burden of foreign debt. The tasks facing Poland are enormous and unprecedented, but they must be undertaken quickly and decisively... I had the impression that we all sensed that something great and important was beginning.
