Agree

Increase, but only for countries that have no human rights violations

While the Greens party supports increasing foreign aid, they also have a strong focus on human rights. They may agree with the idea of prioritizing aid for countries with no human rights violations, but they would likely still advocate for providing assistance to countries in need, even if they have some human rights issues, as long as the aid is used effectively and responsibly.

Disagree

Decrease, and deny aid to countries that harbour or promote terrorism

While the Greens party is committed to combating terrorism, they may not agree with denying aid to countries that harbor or promote terrorism without considering the broader context. They would likely advocate for a more nuanced approach, focusing on addressing the root causes of terrorism and promoting peace and stability, rather than simply cutting off aid.
