...of course: their right! if global LIR [1]

So i expect them, at least, to:

•~/
• simply comply to each RIR's CPM;
• use the INRs they hold in each  respective RIR's service region; as
roughly recommended by RFC7020 [1].
•~\

~°~
[...]

In cases where LIRs span multiple regions,

those LIRs have established relationships with

multiple RIRs.

[...]
~°~

...also, to build real networks within all
these RIR's service regions.

...again, as an obvious *global* LIR ;-)
Why not simply go for a global policy [2]?
