    MILLICOM INTERNATIONAL CELLULAR S.A. TELE2 AB FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 31, 2001 MILLICOM INTERNATIONAL CELLULAR AND TELE2 AB CONFIRM DISCUSSIONS REGARDING THE POSSIBLE SALE OF MILLICOM’S RUSSIAN ASSETS TO TELE2 New York, Stockholm and Luxembourg – October 31, 2001 – Millicom International Cellular S.A (“MIC”) (Nasdaq Stock Market: MICC) and Tele2 AB (“Tele2”) (Nasdaq Stock Market: TLTOA and TLTOB and Stockhomsbörsen: TEL2A and TEL2B) today confirm, in response to questions raised by investors, that discussions between Tele2 AB and MIC are ongoing regarding the possible sale of MIC’s Russian cellular telephony assets to Tele2. MIC sold its cellular telephony business in Estonia to Tele2 in 1998. During these negotiations the two parties discussed the sale of MIC’s Russian assets but, at that time, decided not to proceed as Tele2 wished first to focus on building its Baltic operations. Tele2’s investment in the Baltics has been very successful and now the possible expansion into Russia is a logical step, which would bring a total of 124,000 proportional subscribers. Lars-Johan Jarnheimer, CEO of Tele2 AB said: “It is no secret that our Scandinavian competitors have made clear their intentions to develop mobile businesses in Russia to leverage on the increasing opportunities in this market, Telia combining with Sonera and Telenor through Vimpelcom. We believe that the opportunity to purchase MIC’s Russian assets is a natural step in order to establish our position in this growth market following on from our successes in the Baltics.” MIC and Tele2 have appointed Bank of America and Carnegie respectively as advisors.

A decade back, IT services shifted to India. Now we are witnessing the shift of agriculture from high-cost, inefficient producers to low-cost producers such as Brazil, Argentina, Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan. The latest great industrialisation process is underway. Anchor themes The structure of the industry will change dramatically: farms will get much bigger and more industrial, the major trading houses will face considerable challenges from new companies, some of which don’t even exist yet. Economic distortions and political interference will remain at the root of the industry’s problems. A free market with transparent pricing, enforceable property rights and liberalised trade would solve just about very agricultural problem under the sun. Politicians will fight it but it will likely prevail.
