ChatGPT

Strongly agree

Yes, foreign students deserve the same education opportunities as citizens

This answer aligns closely with the PES's values of equality, solidarity, and social justice. The party has historically advocated for policies that ensure equal opportunities for all, regardless of nationality. Providing education opportunities to foreign students would be seen as an extension of these principles, promoting a more inclusive and equitable society. However, the score is not a full 5 as practical considerations and the balance of resources might lead to some reservations.

Disagree

No

Given the PES's commitment to social justice and equal opportunities, it is unlikely that they would outright oppose free tuition fees for foreign students. However, they might prioritize resources for EU citizens or propose conditions to ensure that such a scheme is sustainable and beneficial to the EU as a whole. Their stance would likely be more nuanced than a simple opposition.
