PARIS (Reuters) - Britain "depends practically entirely" on the European Union for its COVID-19 vaccines, European Internal Market Commissioner Thierry Breton - who heads the EU executive's vaccine task force - told France Info on Friday.

The EU and Britain have been engaged in political disputes over deliveries and rollouts of COVID vaccines.
