Spain's health ministry is blaming the European Union for delays to COVID-19 vaccine deliveries that forced Madrid to halt new inoculations and threatened supplies across Spain, newspaper El Mundo quoted a leaked official document as saying.
With stocks dwindling and new infections near record levels, regional authorities in Madrid have stopped vaccinating new people and are using their remaining supplies to administer second shots to those who have already received a first jab.

The Europeans can't help but turn on each other, it's in their DNA. History proves it.
Now it seems the EU are trying to BULLY the U.K.Big mistake,in the U.K. we say bullies are cowards.Suggest some EU countries grow up,get a voice and stop being lap dogs to the ‘Powerful ‘ EU countries who have experience of trying to be bullies. The EU will break up in 5years.
Hopefully the start of the end for the eu empire.
