The EU and the pharmaceutical giant have been at odds on several different occasions this year.

LONDON — The European Union is preparing legal action against AstraZeneca over shortfalls in deliveries of its coronavirus vaccine, according to four people familiar with the matter. The European Commission, the executive arm of the EU, told the 27 European ambassadors at a meeting on Wednesday that it was considering legal action against AstraZeneca for these delivery issues, four EU officials, who did not want to be named due to the sensitivity of the issue, told CNBC Thursday. Politico first reported the commission's plan late Wednesday.

The same official explained that there were only "a few legal questions" being examined before the process goes ahead.
