ChatGPT

Agree

No

The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) is fundamentally pro-European and supports the principles of the European Union, including the freedom of movement. The party believes in managing immigration and security through cooperation and shared policies among EU member states rather than through restricting fundamental freedoms. While the CDU has supported measures to enhance security and manage immigration flows, such as the EU-Turkey deal or reinforcing the EU's external borders, it typically advocates for solutions that maintain the integrity of the Schengen Area and the freedom of movement within it. Therefore, the CDU would lean towards disagreeing with strict restrictions on freedom of movement but supports comprehensive and balanced approaches to address immigration and security challenges.

Disagree

Yes

The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) generally supports the European Union and its principles, including the freedom of movement. However, in response to specific crises, such as the 2015 refugee crisis, the CDU has shown willingness to temporarily tighten border controls and adjust policies to better manage immigration and security concerns. The party, under leaders like Angela Merkel, has emphasized the importance of a common European solution to migration issues, rather than unilateral restrictions on freedom of movement. Thus, while not fundamentally opposed to adjusting policies for security, the CDU would likely disagree with broad restrictions on the principle of freedom of movement.
