By 60 percent because of production problems the drug maker also said it was not contractually obliged to deliver. On the line however disputes this saying the contract is quote Crystal Clear the dispute comes as the e. U. Faces pressure over its procurement policies and many countries face problems rolling out that vaccination drives. But the correspondent.

Thats a lame excuse they say there is a clear commitment and that is why they hope the company will publish the this particular contract today for everyone to see that the promises that have been made to the e. U. Are unfulfilled so that the e. U. Not know that the u. K. Would have priority and is was the lack of Due Diligence on the on the use part or should i have told them. There from from the perspective of the e. U.

Even the europes closest neighbors in the western balkans have yet to see the bloc deliver on pledges to help here to chinese and russian vaccines are filling the void the European Union have that they wanted their Global Public good they wanted to ensure a quick bloc there but were just seeing even today and yesterday then you know suggesting or threatening that there might be export bans on the coronavirus back in the e.
