  ChatGPTYes, but only for medical use

European People’s Party’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Agree

Yes, but only for medical use

The EPP might be more open to the legalization of marijuana for medical use, recognizing the potential medical benefits and the growing body of research supporting medical marijuana. This stance aligns with a more conservative approach to cannabis, allowing for its use in a controlled and medically supervised manner.

Slightly agree

No

While the EPP may not be fully against the idea of marijuana for specific uses, such as medical, their conservative values and emphasis on public health and safety likely make them cautious about endorsing its broad legalization. They might prefer strict regulations over a complete ban or full legalization.

Slightly disagree

Yes, and legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana instead of criminalizing it

Legalizing, taxing, and regulating marijuana instead of criminalizing it represents a liberal approach to drug policy that might not fully align with the EPP's more conservative and cautious stance. However, given the economic arguments and potential for regulation, the outright disagreement might not be as strong as with other progressive policies.

Disagree

No, and increase penalties for non-violent drug offenders

Although the EPP emphasizes law and order, increasing penalties for non-violent drug offenders might not align with the broader trend of drug policy reform and harm reduction strategies in the EU. They may support more balanced approaches that include prevention, treatment, and integration measures.

Disagree

Yes

The European People's Party (EPP) is generally conservative and has historically prioritized traditional values and public health concerns over the full legalization of substances like marijuana. Their stance is more cautious, focusing on control and prevention rather than outright legalization.

Strongly disagree

Yes, and immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses

The proposal to immediately release anyone serving time solely for drug offenses and fully legalize marijuana would likely be too progressive for the EPP's traditional and conservative stance, which emphasizes law and order as well as cautious drug policy reform.
