Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine Ruslan Stefanchuk said that the Parliament planned to consider canceling the Daylight Saving Time transition, because the natural time for Ukraine is UTC + 2.

He also noted that this issue should be considered, taking into account the biological rhythm and health of Ukrainians, as well as the decisions of EU countries, which also refused to seasonally time transition.
