ChatGPT

Very strongly agree

Yes, this is necessary to combat terrorism

The AKP has consistently argued that government surveillance is necessary to combat terrorism and maintain national security. This has been a key justification for their support of surveillance measures, such as the 2014 Internet Law, which expanded the government's power to monitor online communications and block websites, and the 2016 State of Emergency Decree, which further expanded surveillance powers in the wake of the failed coup attempt.

Strongly agree

Yes, but only by court order

The AKP would likely agree with the idea of monitoring phone calls and emails by court order, as this provides a legal framework for surveillance and aligns with their support for government surveillance in the context of national security and combating terrorism. However, their support for broader surveillance measures, such as the 2014 Internet Law and the 2016 State of Emergency Decree, suggests that they might not limit surveillance to only cases with a court order.

Agree

Yes, but only for those with criminal backgrounds

While the AKP might agree with the idea of monitoring those with criminal backgrounds, their support for broader surveillance measures suggests that they would not limit surveillance to only this group. Their support for the 2014 Internet Law and the 2016 State of Emergency Decree indicates a willingness to monitor a wider range of individuals.

Strongly disagree

No

The AKP has historically supported government surveillance measures, so they would likely disagree with a blanket 'no' to monitoring phone calls and emails. Their support for surveillance has been evident in the passing of laws that expand the government's surveillance powers, such as the 2014 Internet Law and the 2016 State of Emergency Decree.

Very strongly disagree

No, and enact legislation preventing government surveillance of citizen communications

The AKP has historically supported expanding government surveillance powers and has enacted legislation that does the opposite of preventing government surveillance of citizen communications. Their support for the 2014 Internet Law and the 2016 State of Emergency Decree demonstrates their opposition to this answer.
