Not even in Russia the Government intervened with free business (.moscow for example is NOT a Government company). The Internet is NOT a Government controlled and owned environment – and I assume we will find close to zero proponents to make big changes to that status quo. The biggest ccTLD for example is completely FREE of Government control whatsoever. And Germans so much like to “control” :D

2012-round CityTLDs that were applied for by a government entity: .rio, .nyc, .london, .swiss, .madrid, .bcn, .barcelona, .istanbul, .ist , .melbourne, .sydney, .dubai, .doha, .stockholm, .helsinki, .paris ... I believe the majority of city TLDs have the city government as registry operator.
