At the same moment, you write:

All timezones should have the same approach.


Also, in the "Theory" file where is:

At the moment, as for Tomsk citizens, phrazes like 'we are living by 
Novosibirsk [time]' before time shift and 'we are using Krasnoyark time' 
are common enough.

Google shows enough results about this query:
"Томск переходит в Красноярский часовой пояс"
(translation: "Tomsk enters the Krasnoyarsk Time Zone")
