[address-policy-wg] [ncc-services-wg] Crimea papers

Hi Max,

I understand your frustration, but this is not the place to fight this fight. The RIPE NCC has both Russian and Ukrainian members. A member can be an existing entity under either Russian or Ukrainian law. The location of the entity doesn't matter in this case. A company can have its office in Crimea, independent of whether it is registered as a Russian or a Ukrainian company and independent of which country Crimea belongs to. The RIPE NCC can only deal with if an entity exists.

Compare it to this: if I would go and live in Belgium I can be a member as a Dutch personal entity while having a Belgian address.

But this is getting severely off-topic for this mailing list, so let's stop this discussion here and focus on address policy again :)

Cheers,
Sander
