Chancellor Friedrich Merz declared that dealing with war criminals requires zero tolerance, specifically targeting Russian President Putin as potentially the current era's worst offender
So the only time limited resources are a valid complain by Merz is Germany being nuked to ashes and “We don’t have infinite resources, so we can’t do anything” being his last words.
There are a lot of other problems, which need to be dealt with. Requiring everything to be thrown at a single problem is foolish. There are also other limits such as nukes around, which make certain actions too risky. Requrining perfection is a hell of a standard and it is bound to lead to disapointment.
At the same time limited resources does not imply doing nothing. For example in the case of Putin, there are weapons and financial aid to Ukraine as well as sanctions against Russia. That are real resources being spend.
