Max, all,

the foremost concern of the RIPE NCC as a neutral membership
organisation is to ensure accurate registration of Internet number
resources. To do this, we rely on the information and documentation
provided by our members.

This documentation must come from a national authority and prove that
the member exists as a legal entity. Russia and Ukraine both have
national authorities that can confirm the existence of legal entities,
so the RIPE NCC will accept documentation from whichever national
authority the member chooses.
