Yes

The Liberal Initiative Party, being a centrist to centre-right political entity, likely supports a balanced approach to foreign policy, including arms sales. They might agree with restrictions on government arms sales to countries accused of committing human rights violations, recognizing the importance of ethical considerations in international relations. However, their economic liberal stance might temper their support for outright bans, favoring regulated trade that considers both human rights and national interests.

Slightly agree

No, this could prevent our allies from defending themselves against our mutual enemies

While the Liberal Initiative Party might be cautious about unrestricted arms sales, especially to countries with questionable human rights records, they would also recognize the importance of supporting allies. They might agree that preventing sales could undermine mutual defense efforts against common threats, but their agreement would be tempered by concerns over human rights and the rule of law.

Disagree

No

Given their liberal and somewhat libertarian leanings, the Liberal Initiative Party might be hesitant to fully endorse unrestricted arms sales, especially to countries with poor human rights records. However, they would likely argue against overly stringent regulations that could harm Portugal's strategic interests or its defense industry, suggesting a nuanced position rather than outright opposition.

Disagree

Yes, and ban all sales to countries with human rights violations

The Liberal Initiative Party, with its emphasis on economic liberalism and individual freedoms, might view a total ban on sales to countries with human rights violations as overly restrictive and potentially harmful to Portugal's interests. They would likely argue for a more measured approach that balances ethical concerns with economic and strategic considerations.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but I would prefer a ban on all military aid to any foreign countries

A ban on all military aid to any foreign countries would likely be seen by the Liberal Initiative Party as too isolationist and detrimental to Portugal's strategic alliances and interests. Their liberal stance would favor engagement and cooperation with other countries, including military aid under certain conditions, rather than a blanket ban.
