Ursula von der Leyen's attempt for a second term as European Commission chief has encountered a significant setback after a top EU court determined she was not sufficiently transparent with the public regarding Covid-19 vaccine contracts.
This after the EU's Court of Justice ruled against the Commission’s decision to redact large parts of the contracts before making them available, just 24 hour before the European Parliament will vote on the exension of Von der Leyen’s mandate as the EU's President.
