06 March 2021 "The European Union will urge the United States to allow the export of millions of doses of AstraZeneca's vaccine to Europe". The Financial Times writes it citing European sources. The move will serve to "fill the EU's vaccine supply shortages and respect supply contracts".

According to the City newspaper, the EU also wants Washington to guarantee a free flow of shipments of the components necessary for European production. "The commission intends to raise the issue in upcoming transatlantic discussions," notes the Financial Times.
