Unfortunately, the article doesn't make clear which exact vaccines it's discussing.
So it's entirely possible that the specific vaccines approved in Europe are supply-constrained, while other vaccines are in the situation described in the article. All that means is that saying that "the problem problem is production" is very specific-vaccine and specific-regulatory-unit dependent and needs to be evaluated carefully.
I'm curious where these 70M doses are bought but not approved. As far as I can tell, AstraZeneca is approved all over Europe.
