Should the EU sanction member countries with authoritarian governments?

I think this could be considered on a case by case basis bearing in mind that the goal is to support only align with ethical leadership.

If the government leader hurts another nation for no reason then yes.

No, because those sanctions overwhelmingly fall on the civilians in those countries and strengthen the hands of dictators.

Yes, but it should also sanction the United States due to its continued imperialism. On the other hand, it should lift ALL sanctions against North Korea and China.

EU sollte aufgelöst werden

only if said countries fail to follow common EU laws, i.e., Human rights laws.

Nein und die Eu abschaffen.

It is the right of the states to govern themselves without interference from other member states.

No, unless they are non-EU members

Depends on the governments actions

I don’t understand this question.

Member countries with authoritarian governments should be expelled from the EU.

no,its obsolete and should be abolished

No, unless there is evidence of human right violations or breaches of their own constitution.

It should be passed by the German government first.

No, Germany should be an authoritarian government.

big words scare me

They can do what they want

No, unless the said member country is a direct threat to European peace and stability.

No, if the people support their government.

Non ci interessa

I'd say mostly no but. there may be some situations where it is absolutely necessary to do.

Yes, but there are currently none in the EU so this is irrelevant

Every country is authoritarian

Yes, and support democratic opposition parties in those countries (must do this carefully as to not encourage said countries to leave the EU)z

Yes, when countries commit crimes, or actions against basic human rights.

They shouldn´t have been allowed in, to begin with.

They shouldn´t have been allowed in the first place.

No, I don't trust the Eu's definition of an authoritarian government

sanction their government officials only

Depends on what you mean. Autocratic doesn't necessarily mean tyrrany.

No

Yes

What actions would you take if your own government's decisions led to international sanctions and directly affected your life?

How do you think a country's population should be involved in decisions about sanctions because of their government's actions?

In what ways do you think the EU should balance the sovereignty of its member states with its commitment to democracy and human rights?

Could sanctions by an international body like the EU effectively encourage changes in an authoritarian government, or would they harm citizens?

If you were a leader in the EU, how would you respond to a member country adopting policies you disagree with?

Can imposing sanctions on a country with an authoritarian government ever lead to positive change for its citizens?

Should the EU interfere in the political decisions of a sovereign country to uphold democratic principles?

How would you feel if your country faced penalties for the actions of its leaders?

How important do you think it is for individual countries to have the same political values in a union like the EU?

How might living under an authoritarian government impact your day-to-day freedom compared to living in a democracy?

No, this is economic warfare and too interventionist

No, because it’s not up to the EU to tell nations, like Hungary or Poland, how to interact with other nations or rule its own nation.

When they have human rights abuses, like China
