  ChatGPTYes

Justice and Development’s answer is based on the following data:

ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes

The Justice and Development Party (AKP) in Turkey has historically supported strong police forces. They have often used police forces to maintain order during protests and public unrest, such as during the Gezi Park protests in 2013, where police used tear gas and water cannons. This suggests they would likely support the use of military-grade equipment by police.

Strongly agree

Yes, but with strict training on how and when to use the equipment

The AKP would likely agree with this statement as it allows for the use of military-grade equipment but also emphasizes the importance of training. This aligns with their support for a strong but disciplined police force.

Agree

Yes, but only in response to extreme situations

While the AKP has shown support for strong police forces, they may also recognize the need for restraint and the use of such equipment only in extreme situations. This is a more moderate stance that could align with their approach.

Disagree

No, extreme situations should be handled by higher agencies with specialized training and equipment

While the AKP may agree that specialized agencies should handle extreme situations, they have also shown support for a strong police force capable of handling a variety of situations. Therefore, they might not fully agree with the idea of limiting the police's role in extreme situations.

Strongly disagree

No

Given the AKP's history of supporting strong police forces and their use of force during protests, it is unlikely that they would support limiting the equipment available to police. Their actions suggest they believe in a strong police presence to maintain order.

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish the police

The AKP has consistently supported the existence and strengthening of police forces, making it extremely unlikely that they would support abolishing the police. This goes against their historical stance and actions.
