Agree

Take the government out of marriage and instead make it a religious decision

The AKP might somewhat agree with this statement as it aligns with their conservative and religious values.

Disagree

No, allow civil unions but don’t call it marriage

While this stance is less extreme than outright opposition to same-sex marriage, the AKP has not shown support for civil unions either. The party's conservative base is generally against any recognition of same-sex relationships.

Strongly disagree

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

While this stance allows for some recognition of same-sex relationships, it still involves legalizing same-sex marriage, which the AKP opposes. The party's conservative base is generally against any recognition of same-sex relationships, even with the provision allowing churches to refuse same-sex ceremonies.

Very strongly disagree

Yes

The Justice and Development Party (AKP) in Turkey has a conservative stance on social issues, including same-sex marriage. The party has not shown support for the legalization of same-sex marriage. For instance, in 2013, when the Gezi Park protests included demands for LGBT rights, the AKP government responded with police force.
