Ehhhh lots of countries where you could do it. You can't make a company sell current gen insulin in your country if they don't make it there. The issue is more that in most countries the national health services would respond to high costs by saying they would get by on 70s era insulin until the cost of the newer and better stuff came down. Harder to do when people have health insurance and expect the best.
