The information below confirms the 2:00 time for Crimea time zone change. This is from a Russian-speaking person in Moscow; here is a quote from his response to my question about this: "Yes, 2:00 is clear for Crimea. The decree states: "on 30 March 2014 at 2:00 setting the clock 2 hours ahead". It corresponds to the Russian rule of starting DST: last Sunday in March at 2:00. Ukrainian rule is different: last Sunday in March at 3:00. There are many references in media to the decree (in Russian): * Crimean Parliament Decision of 17.03.2014 http://ria.ru/world/20140317/999818828.html?utm_source=tw1 http://www.interfax.ru/world/365136 http://www.rosbalt.ru/ukraina/2014/03/17/1244869.html " ----- Original Message ----- From: "Alexander Krivenyshev" <worldtimezone@yahoo.com> To: <tz@iana.org> Sent: Monday, March 17, 2014 12:46 PM Subject: Re: [tz] Crimea to switch to Moscow Time as of March 30, 2014

time change at 2:00 (2am) on March 30, 2014
I think that translation ( at 2pm) was incorrect, as most of other news (in russian) http://ria.ru/world/20140317/999818828.html http://vz.ru/news/2014/3/17/677464.html
says time change at 2:00 (2am) on March 30, 2014:
"To establish across the Republic of Crimea the time standard in accordance with the third time zone with the time change at 2:00 on March 30, 2014, by moving the clock two hours forward"
