At its meeting on February 28, the ICANN Board of Directors approved the request for the delegation of the Cyrillic top-level domain .УКР for Ukraine. The final step before the corresponding record for the .УКР domain appears in the Internet root servers must be the approval of the ICANN Board’s decision by the U.S. Department of Commerce. The .УКР domain has been delegated to the Ukrainian Network Information Center (UANIC), which will serve as its administrator. According to UANIC, the start of domain name registrations in Ukrainian and Russian in the .УКР domain, as well as the approval of new domain name registration rules, can be expected in the coming months. It should be recalled that UANIC is the authorized non-profit organization for administering the address space in Ukraine and is also the administrator of Ukraine’s country code +380 in the numbering subsystem of the public telecommunications network (PSTN) under the ENUM protocol.
