| 338# 339# From the BBC via Joseph S. Myers (2004-06-27): 340# 341# Georgia moved closer to Western Europe on Sunday... The former Soviet 342# republic has changed its time zone back to that of Moscow. As a result it 343# is now just four hours ahead of Greenwich Mean Time, rather than five hours 344# ahead. The switch was decreed by the pro-Western president of Georgia, 345# Mikhail Saakashvili, who said the change was partly prompted by the process 346# of integration into Europe. 347 |
