I only know what I read. Two impressions: 1) she stayed too long. The last several years were her worst. The should have let the scene about 5 years ago. 2) she had great success economically in Germany. (Was that her, or her part, or her ministers? I don’t know). But Germany’s economic success came at the cost of breaking up Europe. Was that a wise strategic move? History will tell. I give her all the credit in the world for having come from East Germany and being an effective leader for most of her time there, In that respect, more power for her. But she stayed too long.
