January 31st local time, Irish Prime Minister Michelle Martin said that the European Union should “learn a lot of lessons” from the reversal of coronavirus vaccine control in Northern Ireland.
Martin said that people have been “shadowed” by the dispute, and the EU’s move did not constitute “hostile behavior”, but only a measure to reduce exports and ensure internal supply in the absence of vaccines in member states.
The United Kingdom also expressed confidence that the European Union would not block the export supply of coronavirus vaccine to the United Kingdom.
European Commission President von der Leyen promised British Prime Minister Johnson that “no contract between the UK and EU producers will not be interrupted,” said Liz Truss, the British Secretary of State for International Trade.
