@Skiluros

"what was Merkel’s desirable state outcome?"

"What was her goal? Surely, this is not an unreasonable ask."

Certainly, an interesting question.

I see it this way: She ignored what had happened, believed Germany could benefit from the cheap fossil energy (gas and oil) out of Russia and things would go well somehow... or at least believed, it will not get that bad.
