do the rest of europe change their clocks
Summer Time in Europe
Belarus switched to summer time in Spring 2011 and did not switch back , and is now observing UTC + 03 : 00 all year round . The midpoint of Belarus has longitude 28 ° E ( corresponds to UTC + 1.8 ) . Iceland observes UTC all year round despite being at longitudes ( 13 ° W - 24 ° W ) which would indicate UTC − 1 . Iceland 's high latitude ( the Reykjavík region , home to nearly two - thirds of the country 's people , is at 64 ° N ) means that sunset and sunrise times change by many hours over the year , and the effect of changing the clock by one hour would , in comparison , be small . Russia used `` permanent summer time '' from 2011 to 2014 . In October 2014 Russia changed permanently back to standard time ( UTC + 03 : 00 in the country 's west , including Moscow ) , setting the clocks back one hour at the same time as other European countries did . Turkey decided not to observe daylight saving time anymore in September 2016 , and decided to stay in UTC + 3 throughout the year rather than switching back to its original time UTC + 2 .
