I am not looking to start a political argument on internals mailing lists but if the PHP Foundation stands behind its statement in March of 2022, this PR runs counter to it. I would think it should be reverted. And perhaps replaced with some message of support for Ukraine on php.net, for good measure. I'm happy to contribute the code.

Just to clarify, the PHP Foundation does not control the PHP.net website. (Who does? That's sort of a philosophical question right now.) This would probably be best addressed on the internals@ list which represents the closest thing to a controlling entity for the PHP project at this time.

IMO it is possible to stand against Russian oppression and still support PHP-Developers living in the country that might by now not even have a possibility to get out. And the "Statement in March" states "Vladimir Putin's Regime". Not "The Russian People". Supporting the later in overcoming the former is a way of supporting Ukraine.
