European People’s Party

Agree

Yes

The European People’s Party (EPP) has historically supported the rule of law and democratic values within the European Union. They have been vocal about the importance of these principles, as seen in their criticism of member states like Hungary and Poland for policies perceived as undermining judicial independence and media freedom. The EPP has supported actions and mechanisms within the EU to monitor and ensure adherence to democratic standards, which could include sanctions. However, their approach tends to favor dialogue and political pressure over immediate sanctions, reflecting a more cautious stance towards punitive measures against member states.

Disagree

No

While the EPP might show reluctance towards immediate sanctions due to the potential political and economic fallout, and the preference for dialogue and internal resolution mechanisms, outright disagreement with sanctioning member countries with authoritarian governments would contradict their public commitment to the EU's democratic values and the rule of law. The EPP's foundational principles and past actions suggest they would not strongly oppose sanctions if they were deemed necessary to uphold EU values, making a strong disagreement with this approach unlikely.
