Our Worldview: Freedom Belongs to the West

We do not seek freedom in authoritarian regimes, oppressive systems, or personal rule.
Our understanding of liberty is grounded in the rule of law, individual rights, democracy, and open society.

The United States of America has contributed an idea to history:
The idea of the free individual. Wherever this idea lives, it offers hope against oppression.

Today, we believe that the West is still the strongest guardian of liberty.

We stand with the West because we believe in freedom.
We stand with America because we stand for the individual.
