I agree 100%.
The NCC *MUST* remain neutral no matter how much we oppose the attack on
Ukraine.
It's the start of a very slippery slope if we (for some definition of we) start
taking decisions about who does and doesn't get numbering resources. Or
freezing/withdrawing those that have already been allocated. [Apart from the
usual sanctions when an LIR is in breach of the membership agreement, say by
not paying.] Those decisions have to be taken elsewhere: ie the Dutch courts.
There's no need for the NCC to intervene here. Those who want to make life
difficult for the Russian government can take their own decisions about which
prefixes get advertised or dropped by their routers.
