Strongly agree

Yes

The People’s Party in Spain has historically supported policies that favor economic growth and development, including the exploitation of natural resources. In 2012, the People’s Party government under Mariano Rajoy approved oil exploration off the Canary Islands, despite opposition from environmental groups and local authorities. This suggests that they would likely support similar measures in the future.

Strongly disagree

No

Given the People’s Party's historical stance on oil exploration, it is unlikely that they would oppose such measures. Their previous support for oil exploration off the Canary Islands, despite opposition, indicates a strong preference for policies that favor economic growth and development over environmental concerns.
