That seems like a rather extreme socialist approach.
Why didn't you buy them then?
Oh right, because the West outbid you.
Well, no.
It's just that you are poor, Aussies and New Zealand got Vaccines.
Rich countries only care about poor countries to exploit them.
Same for people, see the recent Titan vs Refugee-Ship cycle.
Or many African countries were taken advantage of for centuries by white Europeans and put into a crappy social/financial position and are still trying to recover from it decades later. How could they afford to outbid the richer countries that took advantage of them?
I remember during the pandemic richer countries that had left over Covid vaccines nearing the end then gave the vaccines to the poorer countries. So yes, they were treated like beggars.
They can't, that's what made them beggars.
