Alexander Belopolsky added the comment:
This is not a bug in datetime.timezone. The value returned by
timezone.tzname() is documented and the code works correctly. %Z should not be
used to produce machine-readable timestamps and for a human reader
'UTC+03:00+0300' should not be confusing.
Note that calling the astimezone() method (without arguments) will return local
time with tzname set:
>>> os.putenv('TZ', 'XYZ-3')
>>> time.tzset()
>>> utctime = datetime.datetime.now(datetime.timezone.utc)
>>> localtime = utctime.astimezone()
>>> localtime.strftime('%Z%z')
'XYZ+0300'
