Hi Alex,
thank you. I read that documentation and I was reading this one from page 201:
https://www.ripe.net/support/training/material/bgp-operations-and-security-training-course/BGP-Slides-Single.pdf  

It seems that RIRs have a self-signed root certificate. They use this certificate to sign LIR's certificates and 
LIR's private key is used to sign ROAs. I am not very sure about the use of public keys.

The “LIR”’s public key is on the certificate signed by the RIR and that makes the chain.
