From another article

>The European Commission, the executive body of the EU, launched a probe in July, saying that the proposed deal could result in Amazon hindering iRobot rivals from competing on Amazon’s online marketplace. The commission argued that Amazon could delist or reduce rival products’ prominence in search results or elsewhere.

Amazon more than once hindered competitors on their marketplace, so their previous behavior is the reasons for the objection by the EU.

Who to blame for that?
