Hum, while I as a Green voter in my own country obviously disagree with her on a number of issues I do think that this could be overall good for Germany, depending on what direction she's going to push. A more proportional electoral system better for smaller parties would probably be a positive if she pushes fot that. Her regional base means that there's still plenty of room for more moderate left parties outside of her influence to potentially capitalize on this in the future. It's a way to siphon off voters from AFD that's good however you look at it even if that means that her own party will push against things that's important. It should be possible to make decent compromises with her. You can tighten immigration temporarily without locking the door for instance, focusing more on integration for a few years. Then open the botders again in the case of a emergency when actually needed and when the integration infrastructure is better equipped to handle the volume. Russia... That's a tough one... As long as Ukraine continue to get the war support needed perhaps some sanctions can be sacrificed in return? Some Russian gas could be earmarked her eastern constituencies. It would lead to Russian income that we'd all be fighting against. But if made limited enough it's perhaps something that can be worked with. Leaving NATO is of course a no go. Same with the EU. She isn't against the energy transition in principle it seems, but wants to cushion her constituencies from the worst effects.

 @Spacedog79 That's not exactly true. The majority of people that's economically left wing is also libertarian and the other way around.
