Ukraine to switch to winter time this weekend

Ukraine on October 30 (the night from Saturday to Sunday) will move to winter time by putting a clock one hour back. 

This is stipulated in the Cabinet’s resolution as of May 13, 1996 No.509 “on the procedure for calculating time on the territory of Ukraine”.

In 2011, the Verkhovna Rada issued a resolution to cancel the switching to winter time, but following public debates it wasn’t approved.
