The RIPE NCC provides important services to a membership spread across a diverse geographical and political region.
The Executive Board of the RIPE NCC believes that the means of communication should not be affected by political discussions or disputes. This includes the provision of correctly registered Internet numbering resources.
The Executive Board of the RIPE NCC is committed to taking all lawful steps available to ensure that the RIPE NCC can provide undisrupted services to all members across our service region. The RIPE NCC and its staff can not and will not take positions with regard to specific political disputes.
The RIPE NCC will publicly document all efforts to ensure that provision of registration services is not disrupted by laws, regulation or political developments.
