The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Spain, Arancha González Laya, does not see a “bazaar” in the purchase of vaccines and does not rule out doing it alone if the EU vaccination passport fails. The secessionists await a “fair trial” in Spain.
The press: Chancellor Sebastian Kurz criticized the distribution of corona vaccines in the EU. Are there secret deals like in the bazaar?
Arancha González Laya: No. The EU received the vaccines for the EU countries. The amount we ask for. Each EU member decided for himself the specific combination. Due to delivery bottlenecks at AstraZeneca, states that bought more are now struggling harder. The fact that the EU acquired the vaccine contributed to fairness. Imagine if all countries, large, small, medium, had gone on the market alone and had to fight for the vaccine alone. That would have been a bazaar.
Austria and Denmark want to produce vaccines together with Israel. How do you rate those “solo efforts”?
