Centenary Policy Institute – Mission Statement

Centenary Institute was founded in Vilnius in 2018 to address the imminent threat to Western democracies arising from hostile actions by Russia and China.

We believe the lack of an open debate in the Western media and amongst political elites, suppression of truth – widely referred to as Wokeism -  has led to monumental failure to identify the true nature of Putin’s regime with catastrophic consequences for Ukraine.

The faith in Western moral  values needs to be restored through bold debate and policy action even at the cost of Western political ‘comfort zone’ and sensibilities.

The number one goal of Centenary Policy Institute is to expose anti democratic propaganda in the West and hostile regime actors that undermine democratic institutions.  This corruption and infiltration of Western societies by hostile forces has to be exposed and upended.

We believe a bold approach will be needed in Ukraine to ensure a break with the Soviet past (Desovietization) and separation of business and politics.
We begin our journey by accepting political and democratic failures of past thirty years and embrace future transformation with courage and optimism for the future of Western democracies.
