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. U. And so obviously thats very concerning sign of buckley nationalism here and brussels Officials Say humanitarian vixen donations will be exempt from tougher export controls they promise help will come soon to say that the e.
