The seven countries that we can trade with directly now have a combined population of about 130 million, more than Japan's. And if you assume indirect trade with the Soviet Union, then the population comes to 300 million, which is greater than that of the U.S. or Western Europe.
現在我們可以直接貿易的這七個東歐國家，人口大約一億三千萬，比日本還多一千萬，假如再加上和蘇俄間接貿易，整個東歐人口就有三億，比美國、西歐都多。
