Belarus

Belarus uses Moscow Standard Time MSK. MSK is UTC +0300. Belarus's latitude and longitude is 53 00' N and 28 00' E. Therefore being three hours ahead of UCT is too much for Belarus. Time in Belarus should be UTC +0200. Considering the latitude of Belarus one would expect the country to have a use for daylight savings time but it isn’t observed. It’s all very strange.
