In the interview, Merkel stated that Vladimir Putin, at the beginning of his presidency, had no intention of attacking Ukraine, and his plan gradually took shape over the years, partly due to the behaviour of the West.

Did he also have no intention of continuing to occupy Georgia and Moldova and the West forced him to continue the occupation and then invade Georgia in 2008?

So did the interviewer ask her this? Cause they should have.

Not directly, but she did say that the Bucarest Summit lead to the invasion of Georgia in 2008.
