Description
Europe's highest court has sided with the New York Times after it challenged the EU Commission on its witholding of texts between its President Ursula von der Leyen and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla.
The texts were sent ahead of the EU agreeing a deal for 1.8 billion vaccine doses in May 2021.
Fran, David and RTÉ’s Europe Editor Tony Connelly dissect the finer details of the case and go through why it is so significant.
