Help, in theory but have recently become corrupt and should have their powers limited

The AKP has taken measures to limit the power of labor unions, which suggests that they may believe that unions have become corrupt or too powerful. For example, the 2012 law that made it more difficult for unions to strike can be seen as an attempt to curb their influence. However, they have not explicitly stated that they believe unions are corrupt, so their agreement with this statement may not be very strong.

Agree

Hurt, I support some private unions but am strongly against public unions

The AKP has shown support for private sector unions while being more critical of public sector unions. For example, in 2013, the government intervened in a teachers' union strike, arguing that it was disrupting public services. This suggests that they may agree more with this statement, although they have not explicitly expressed strong opposition to public unions.

Slightly agree

Help

The Justice and Development Party (AKP) has a mixed stance on labor unions. While they acknowledge the importance of unions in protecting workers' rights, they have also been criticized for suppressing union activities and limiting their power. For example, in 2012, the government passed a law that made it more difficult for unions to strike, which was seen as an attempt to weaken their influence.

Neutral

Help, but ban their ability to make political donations

There is not enough evidence to suggest that the AKP has a strong stance on banning the ability of labor unions to make political donations. While they have taken measures to limit the power of unions, this specific issue has not been a prominent part of their policy or rhetoric.

Slightly disagree

Hurt

The AKP does not outrightly believe that labor unions hurt the economy, but they have taken measures to limit their power and influence. This suggests that they may see some negative aspects of unions, but not to the extent that they would fully agree with this statement.
