A legal opinion from Advocate General Athanasios Rantos of the European Court of Justice supports demands for full transparency regarding contracts negotiated by the European Commission for Covid-19 vaccines. Rantos, a Greek national, issued the opinion concerning challenges to the Commission’s approach to vaccine procurement. The case centers on requests for public access to the contracts, which critics argue were negotiated without sufficient oversight. The Advocate General’s position suggests the public has a right to access this information, potentially bolstering arguments for greater accountability. While not a final ruling, his opinion significantly influences the Court’s decision, expected in the coming months. This development is seen as a victory for those advocating for openness in the handling of the pandemic response and public spending.
