Clocks move back an hour on October 26 at 3:00 a.m., told "A1+"
the press service of the Ministry of Economy. This change is in
accordance to the law on the order of estimating time in Armenia,
which was approved on December 10, 1997.

This time change takes place in 122 countries and the first change was
made in 1906 with the initiative of Washington. Although Georgia is
our neighboring country, Armenia has an hour difference. In reality,
our hours must be the same as Georgia because Georgia, Armenia and
Moscow are all in the third time zone. But according to the new NA law,
Armenia has moved on to the 4th time zone.

Clocks will be moved one hour ahead for the summer on the last Sunday
in March in Armenia.
