Proposal from TeliaSonera's Nomination Committee

TeliaSonera's Nomination Committee has informed TeliaSonera that it has
finalized its work regarding nominations for the board of directors. The
committee proposes the following:
Re-election of Mr Tom von Weymarn, Mrs Caroline Sundewall and Mr Timo Peltola.
New election of Mrs Maija-Liisa Friman, Mr Conny Karlsson, Mr Lars G Nordström
and Mr Jon Risfelt. The Nomination Committee further proposes that Mr Tom von
Weymarn is elected to be chairman of the board and that no vice chairman is
appointed.

Mrs Maija-Liisa Friman, 54, is today CEO of the Aspocomp Group. She also has
board assignments in  Metso and Sponda among others.

Mr Conny Karlsson, 51, is today chairman of the boards of SEB Investment
Management AB and Zodiak Television AB. He is also a member of the boards of
Scribona AB, Swedish Match AB and Lindex AB. He has earlier been CEO of Duni AB
and has held several management positions in Procter & Gamble.

Mr Lars G Nordström, 63, is today President and CEO of Nordea Bank AB and
chairman of the boards of the Royal Swedish Opera, the Finnish-Swedish Chamber
of Commerce and the European Financial Management & Marketing Association
(EFMA). He is also a member of the boards of the Swedish-American Chamber of
Commerce and Viking Line Abp.

Mr Jon Risfelt, 45, is today Senior Advisor for the Gambro Group and holds board
assignments at Enea Data AB, Bilia AB, Svensk Fastighetsförmedling, Gulf Agency
Dubai and Malmö Aviation AB. He has earlier been CEO of Europolitan AB and
Vodafone Sweden AB.

As the proposed changes in the composition of the board are substantial, the
shareholders represented at the Nomination Committee have requested
TeliaSonera's board of directors to call for an extraordinary shareholders
meeting to elect new board members. Such a meeting is expected to be held in
January 2007. The Nomination Committee further proposes that the board members
elected at the extraordinary shareholders meeting shall be re-elected at the
annual shareholders meeting on April 24, 2007.

Shareholders representing approximately 64 percent of the votes in the company
have stated that they support the proposals presented by the Nomination
Committee.
