ICANN refused to cut Russia's network, saying not to interfere with the war
#Russia has invaded #Ukraine for more than a month with suspension by companies and countries around the world suspending Russia.
The Ukrainian authority recently requested #ICANN, a non-profit organisation responsible for coordinating global network management, cut the network in Russia, but received denial. ICANN also indicated not to interfere in the war between Russia and Ukraine.
ICANN replied to the Ukrainian officials on #Mar02 that the relevant suggestion was not feasible and also violated the mission of ICANN. Its CEO, Gordon Marby, stated, "Internet is a decentralised system. No one has the power to control it or to shut it down."
He continues, "I am deeply sorry to the Ukrainian citizens who suffered so much in the war. However, ICANN does not have the responsibility to punish or to sanction a specific region or country connecting the internet.
