Who is responsible for the domain zones .com, .net, .org, etc.?

Good afternoon.
Who is responsible for domain zones? In Russia there is a "Coordinating Center for the National Internet Domain", which is responsible for .ru and .rf. And who is responsible for the .com, .net, .org zones?

ICANN is responsible for coordinating the legacy general purpose areas (including .com, .net, .org):

Generally speaking, an unsponsored TLD operates under policies established by the global Internet community directly through the ICANN process , while a sponsored TLD is a specialized TLD that has a sponsor representing the narrower community that is most affected by the TLD. The sponsor thus carries out delegated policy-formulation responsibilities over many matters concerning the TLD.

Let me explain what the quote is about. All zones are divided into zones with a sponsor and zones without a sponsor. In English, the concept of "sponsor" is broader than in Russian. You may have seen in films about drug addicts that the sponsors are not those who invest money, but former addicts who help supervised addicts with advice on how to deal with addiction. Those. "sponsor" in the quoted text is a coordinator/curator. .com, .net, .org do not have a sponsor and are therefore subject to ICANN's general regulatory policy.
