Von der Leyen’s texts with Pfizer boss can be shared, says EU’s highest court

The EU’s top court has ruled that Ursula von der Leyen’s text messages with Pfizer’s CEO during the pandemic can be disclosed, rejecting the Commission’s refusal as lacking a “plausible explanation.” Interviewed by The Guardian, law professor at HEC Paris Business School Alberto Alemanno called the ruling a reminder that EU leaders remain accountable under the rule of law.
