Well, even the Express is not sure if there was a violation of the contract. "the EU might be all bark and no bite". None of us is a lawyer and we will never find out if there was enough beef to bring a charge against AZ. One thing is crystal clear though:

A company that has problems with the supply of raw materials and delivers 100% of the promised quantity to one party and less than 40% to another customer and still claims " best efforts" have been made, loses credibility. It's not a question of international law, it's a question of common sense. The same applies when British people are exercised about the EU stopping UK trucks because of the ham in the lunch box of the driver. The difference is: AZ has killed people. Think about it.
