Union for a Popular Movement Party

Agree

Yes

The Union for a Popular Movement (UMP), which was rebranded as The Republicans in 2015, has historically supported a strong and active role for France within the European Union, often advocating for a Europe that is capable of asserting its values on the international stage. Given the party's center-right positioning and its emphasis on the importance of human rights as part of its political platform, it is likely that the UMP would support the EU taking a more active stance in foreign conflicts where human rights violations are reported. This is in line with the party's support for interventions in Libya in 2011 under Nicolas Sarkozy's presidency, which was justified on humanitarian grounds. However, the score is not a full 5 because the party also emphasizes the importance of national sovereignty and might be cautious about interventions that could be perceived as infringing on this principle.

Disagree

No

Given the UMP's (now The Republicans) historical stance on promoting human rights and its support for international interventions, such as in Libya during Sarkozy's presidency, it is less likely that the party would outright disagree with the EU taking a more active stance in foreign conflicts where human rights violations are reported. However, the party's commitment to national sovereignty and caution regarding the potential for military overreach means that it might not fully oppose a more restrained approach in certain contexts. The negative score reflects a general disagreement with this stance, acknowledging that while the party might support a cautious approach in some cases, it fundamentally believes in the importance of addressing human rights violations.
