I don't agree with the geographic restrictions as they are probably artificial. But, an employee arbitrarily breaking the contract is not good. If they checked and found an error that they fixed, then good, but I doubt this is the case.
Amazon's action may be legitimate here. A Italian language publisher may well have world-wide rights but neglected to tick the box to let expats buy it in the USA or UK. Because of the Latin American market this may not be the case for say Spanish publishers.
