i think others asked you this before but missed the answer (and can't read the german) - how did it come out? was it the equivalent of a 'freedom of information act' request, or was it some insider leak?
yeah, foia-equivalent release to this group of lawyers, but they held it close, refused to show anyone, and there was only this article in Welt. then some insider with access to the release scanned the whole thing and leaked it to the internet.

so, i guess, both.

what's crazy to me then is how much was unredacted. i suspect a FOIA attempt of this same type of stuff in the US would have redacted 3x as much under 'pre-decisional'/'internal deliberation' exceptions

well, they‘re not allowed to arbitrarily redact. every black-out has a little citation to the legal provision that permits them to do this. it‘s how one can intuit which redactions are „China“ (the referenced provision is ‚could harm international relations‘).
