Agree

Yes

The Unitary Democratic Coalition (CDU) is a left-wing political coalition in Portugal, consisting of the Portuguese Communist Party (PCP) and the Ecologist Party 'The Greens' (PEV). They generally support protectionist measures to protect domestic industries and workers. However, their stance is not as strong as some other left-wing parties, so they would moderately agree with adding or increasing tariffs on imported products.
