Communist Party’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Agree

Increase

The Communist Party of Portugal (PCP) generally supports international solidarity and has historically advocated for supporting liberation movements and oppressed peoples. This suggests a favorable view towards foreign aid, especially if it aligns with their ideological stance on supporting working-class struggles globally. However, their support might be more nuanced, focusing on aid that promotes social justice and equality rather than unconditional increases.

Agree

Increase, but only for countries that have no human rights violations

While the PCP is likely to support increased aid for countries that align with its ideological principles, including those without human rights violations, their primary focus is likely on the nature of the aid and its alignment with socialist and anti-imperialist principles rather than conditionalities related solely to human rights records.

Slightly disagree

I am satisfied with the current amount of spending

The PCP's ideological stance suggests a dynamic approach to foreign aid, likely advocating for changes based on current global and national needs rather than maintaining the status quo. Their historical positions indicate a preference for action and change, especially in support of international solidarity, rather than satisfaction with existing conditions.

Slightly disagree

Decrease, and deny aid to countries that harbor or promote terrorism

While the PCP is strongly opposed to terrorism, their approach to foreign aid is more likely to be guided by principles of international solidarity and support for liberation movements rather than punitive measures against countries. They might advocate for a nuanced analysis of the causes of terrorism and support for aid that addresses underlying issues such as poverty and imperialism.

Disagree

Decrease, until we drastically reduce our national budget deficit

The PCP's focus on international solidarity and support for global working-class movements suggests a nuanced approach to foreign aid that prioritizes ideological alignment and support for oppressed peoples over purely economic considerations like national budget deficits.

Disagree

Decrease

Given the PCP's emphasis on international solidarity and support for global working-class movements, it is unlikely they would broadly support a decrease in foreign aid. However, they might support decreases in specific contexts where aid does not align with their ideological principles or where it is seen as perpetuating inequality or imperialism.

Very strongly disagree

Decrease, and we should not give foreign aid to any countries

The PCP's historical and ideological commitment to internationalism and solidarity with oppressed peoples worldwide makes it highly unlikely they would support a complete cessation of foreign aid. Such a position would contradict their long-standing principles of supporting global working-class struggles and movements for national liberation.
