Not sure how this helps? If RIPE (or a government official/court) decides the 
sanctions against Iranian LIRs prevents them from issuing number resources to 
said LIRs, they would just remove the delegation. They’d probably then issue an 
AS0 ROA to replace out given the “AS0 ROA for bogons” policy. In an hour or so 
these LIRs are now disconnected from the world.
