About time in Moscow
Moscow is three hours ahead of UTC and no longer changes its clocks. Russia stopped switching in 2011, initially settling on permanent summer time, then moved back to permanent standard time in 2014 after complaints about dark winter mornings — a useful illustration of the tradeoff every country debating abolition runs into.
