AstraZeneca's real problem seems to be that they, on the face of it, promised contradictory things to different customers.

Except the wording in the EU contract is too vague and loose, and isn't a commitment beyond best reasonable efforts.

Obviously the Commission (publically) disagrees and is using AstraZeneca as a scapegoat for its incompetence.

Loosely worded? What contract lawyer has suggested this? The lawyer comments I have seen say that it is quite clear the Commission has no case.

My hunch is that the EU knew this all along and were vague on purpose to kick the issue down the road.
