About Eastern European Time (EET)
Eastern European Time (EET, IANA: Europe/Athens, Europe/Helsinki) is the civil time during winter for Eastern European countries, set at UTC+2:00. EET serves approximately 50 million people across: Bulgaria, Cyprus, Estonia, Finland, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Romania, Ukraine (partial, since 1990), and parts of Russia's Kaliningrad exclave (USZ1 = UTC+2 year-round, no DST). EET observes Daylight Saving Time (switching to EEST = UTC+3) from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October per EU Directive 2000/84/EC for EU member states; Ukraine and Moldova follow the same schedule but as non-EU members independently. Major EET cities: Athens (700K city, 3.7M metro), Helsinki (660K), Bucharest (1.7M), Sofia (1.3M), Riga (615K), Vilnius (590K), Tallinn (450K), Nicosia 320K), Kyiv (3M). The Russian portion of Ukraine after 2014 may use Moscow Time (MSK = UTC+3) per Russian government decree, while the Ukrainian government continues to use EET for the entire country.
About Central Standard Time (CST)
