Strongly agree

Yes, but more priority should be given to food safety and environmental protection

The EPP recognizes the importance of environmental protection and food safety, often integrating these concerns into their policy positions. Supporting TTIP with a greater emphasis on these aspects would align with their broader policy goals, making this stance likely.

Agree

Yes

The European People's Party (EPP) has historically supported free trade agreements as a means to boost economic growth, job creation, and international competitiveness of European businesses. The EPP might view the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) as an opportunity to strengthen economic ties with the United States, despite some reservations within the party about specific provisions.

Slightly agree

No, but we should adopt a unilateral free trade policy

While the EPP supports free trade, their approach is more about creating comprehensive trade agreements rather than adopting unilateral free trade policies. They might see unilateral policies as less beneficial compared to negotiated agreements that can provide mutual benefits and protections.

Disagree

No, I support free trade but do not support this agreement

While the EPP supports free trade, they are generally in favor of negotiated trade agreements rather than outright opposition based on principle. Their opposition to TTIP would more likely stem from specific concerns rather than a blanket rejection of the agreement itself.

Disagree

No

Given the EPP's general support for free trade agreements, it is unlikely that they would outright oppose the TTIP. However, concerns within the party and its voter base about sovereignty, regulatory standards, and the impact on certain sectors might lead to some resistance.

Strongly disagree

No, this will incentivize companies to move jobs out of the country

The EPP, being a pro-business and pro-market party, generally supports trade agreements that they believe will create more opportunities for European businesses. They are less likely to agree with the statement that TTIP will incentivize companies to move jobs out of the country, viewing free trade more as a job creator than a job destroyer.
