About Western European Time (WET)
Western European Time (WET, IANA: Europe/Lisbon, Atlantic/Faroe) is the civil time during winter for Portugal mainland (excluding the Azores), the Canary Islands (Spain), the Faroe Islands (Denmark), and Iceland uses WET-equivalent year-round (no DST in Iceland). WET is set at UTC+0 — the same offset as GMT — but the distinction is that GMT refers specifically to the time at the Greenwich Observatory while WET is the formal civil-time designation in continental Western European countries. WET observes Daylight Saving Time (switching to WEST — Western European Summer Time = UTC+1) from the last Sunday of March to the last Sunday of October per EU Directive 2000/84/EC. The Azores archipelago (Portuguese Atlantic territory) is one hour behind mainland Portugal at AZOT = UTC-1:00 (winter) / AZOST = UTC+0:00 (summer). WET serves approximately 17 million people. Major cities: Lisbon (550K city, 2.9M metro), Porto (240K), Las Palmas de Gran Canaria (380K), Santa Cruz de Tenerife (220K), Reykjavík (130K — Iceland on WET-equivalent), Tórshavn Faroe (13K).
About Moscow Standard Time (MSK)
Moscow Standard Time (MSK, IANA: Europe/Moscow) is the civil time of European Russia (west of the Ural Mountains) and the Russian capital, set at UTC+3:00 year-round. Russia abolished Daylight Saving Time in 2011 (initially staying permanently on UTC+4 summer time), then in 2014 the Russian Federation Council reverted the country to permanent standard time, with Moscow on UTC+3 year-round, so MSK has been observed without seasonal change since October 2014. Russia spans 11 time zones (UTC+2 Kaliningrad to UTC+12 Kamchatka), of which MSK is the most populous and the reference time for the federal government. MSK serves the European Russia population of ~110 million across the Central Federal District (Moscow oblast, Moscow city, surrounding oblasts), Northwestern Federal District (St. Petersburg + Leningrad oblast), Southern Federal District (Krasnodar, Rostov-na-Donu, Sochi), and Volga Federal District (Nizhny Novgorod). MSK is identical in offset to East Africa Time (EAT), Saudi Arabian Standard Time (AST-SA), and EEST in summer. Major MSK cities: Moscow (12.6M), Saint Petersburg (5.4M), Nizhny Novgorod (1.2M), Kazan (1.3M), Rostov-on-Don (1.1M), Sochi (450K). Affects: MOEX (Moscow Exchange) trading hours, Roscosmos Mission Control operations from Korolev, Bolshoi Theatre performance schedules.
