AFRINIC 的八月选举因干预而受损
AFRINIC，非洲的区域互联网注册机构（RIR），正准备于2025年8月29日举行选举。然而，这次投票远未恢复稳定，反而自身深受污染。 过多的干预——从宣布无效的选票到政府越权——已使AFRINIC的治理陷入瘫痪，其选举的合法性也受到质疑。
这场危机已酝酿数月。AFRINIC 在2025年6月举行了一次拖延已久的董事会选举，旨在结束领导真空。然而，由于一场有争议的代理投票，结果被宣布无效，整个过程随之崩溃。在此过程中，数百张有效选票被作废，引发了人们对该组织能否进行公平透明选举的严重关切。
原本旨在解决AFRINIC治理真空的选举无效，反而引发了更深的信任崩溃。 另见: AFRINIC董事会面临合法性考验.

商业纠纷升级为治理崩溃
风暴的中心是 AFRINIC 与其最大成员之一 Cloud Innovation Ltd (CI) 之间长期的冲突。最初只是一场关于 IP 地址分配的纠纷，后来演变为多年的诉讼、向毛里求斯最高法院的请愿以及法院任命官员的反复干预。
在官方破产接管人 Gowtamsingh Dabee 的管理下，关键程序被延迟或推迟。CI 已提交申请质疑这些失误，主张成员被剥夺了正当程序。因此，原本的商业分歧已恶化为治理崩溃。

毛里求斯政府介入
2025年7月，毛里求斯政府进一步升级事态。援引《公司法》第230条，将 AFRINIC 宣布为“受监管公司”——这一指定赋予了政府对注册机构特别的权力。此举产生了广泛的影响：
- 暂停了所有涉及 AFRINIC 的正在进行的法庭案件。
- 阻止了新案件的提起。
- 启动了政府主导的调查，由国家任命的检查员审查 AFRINIC 的事务。
对于一个本应独立且由社群主导的机构而言，这样的国家干预严重背离了其创立原则。 另见: AfriNIC会员名册神秘消失.
关于权力分立的宪法争议
干预并未止步于此。毛里求斯总统援引宪法第77条第(3)款赋予的权力，任命最高法院法官 Oh San Bellepeau 为检查员。 另见: AfriNIC 消失的成员登记册.
这项任命立即被批评为违宪。法官的任命或罢免只能根据司法和法律服务委员会的建议进行，而不能由总统单方面下令。通过挑选一名在职法官来调查 AFRINIC，总统模糊了行政与司法之间的宪法分界。该法官后来完全退出了这一角色。 另见: 亚历杭德罗·费尔南德斯.
这一事件使 AFRINIC 陷入商业纠纷、治理崩溃和宪法僵局之间的困境。 另见: 阿尔多·加西亚.
为什么8月29日的选举是非法的
在这种背景下，AFRINIC 坚持在八月举行选举的决定是站不住脚的。有两个因素使这一过程非法且不正当： 另见: Alcymer Vieira.
- 六月选票被宣布无效 – AFRINIC 已将六月数百张合法选票作废，引发对选举公正性的质疑。
- 宪法越权 – 违宪任命法官为检查员，已使 Afrinic 的治理蒙上政治干预的阴影。
简而言之，在毛里求斯的法律和宪法框架仍处于混乱之时，Afrinic 无法举行公正的选举。
应采取的措施
未来的路径需要克制与对法律的尊重。AFRINIC 必须暂停其八月选举。现在仓促投票只会加深非法性。
最后，毛里求斯本身必须确保其宪法规范得到尊重。行政机构对司法事务的不当干预不仅损害了 AFRINIC，也损害了该国机构的公信力。
AFRINIC 的八月选举并非通往稳定之路，而是更深层次失败的表征。选票被宣布无效、案件被暂停以及违宪的国家干预，共同导致了这一过程的非法性。最初与 Cloud Innovation 的商业纠纷已升级为治理和宪法危机，使 Afrinic 的未来充满不确定性。
解决方案不在于仓促选举，而在于恢复法治、尊重司法独立，并运用全球公认的框架来维护非洲的互联网治理。
