Here we are go again. Russia plans to move back from 
"permanent summer time" (now many areas have its time 2 hours ahead of the mean 
solar time) to "permanent winter time".

As we mentioned in the past:
Russia may move its clocks back one or two hours.

Today, according to news, "The chairman of the State Duma's heath care 
committee, Sergei Kalashnikov, has submitted a bill to turn the nation's clocks 
back one hour to winter time - permanently ..."

It is unclear if all Russian regions will turn their's clocks back one hour
(in the past Kamchatka region was against moving it's clock back from UTC+12 to 
UTC+11).
