Yeah, I understand this mostly the same way, but my read is that while they can make such a request, AstraZeneca can choose not to do this and isn't forced into taking away vaccines from one country contractually as part of "best reasonable efforts". IANAL also, but I have tried my best to avoid making my own interpretations, and have generally been relaying my understanding of comments by lawyers on Twitter (e.g. https://twitter.com/ShipBrief/status/1355134952405397508 https://twitter.com/ShipBrief/status/1355134952405397508). Writing my initial comment kind of forced me into a rabbit-hole of reading what people were saying...
