Vertaling van "means the average citizen sometimes feels somewhat further away " (Engels → Frans) :

At the same time, creating a much larger structure means the average citizen sometimes feels somewhat further away from government, particularly from the European government, and less participative in this.
Qui plus est, la création d'une structure aussi imposante signifie que le citoyen moyen se sent loin du gouvernement, particulièrement du gouvernement européen, et a moins tendance à y participer.
