Hello Guria! I forwarded your comment #16 to the time zone mailing list
at [email protected] and received the following response (and a
second response that I will add to the next comment):

Hi !

It says: There is an official decision to use Moscow time in Samara
region http://www.svobodanews.ru/content/article/1991161.html (in
Russian)

But there is a petition against this decision, and they hope to undo it
during the next summer->winter switch: "По мнению члена штаба "Самарское
время", депутата губернской думы Михаила Матвеева, если количество
подписей под петицией об отмене московского времени будет увеличиваться,
то осенью у Самары есть шанс вернуть самарское время". But it's purely
theoretical: usually Russian rulers don't care about the people's
petitions.

According to this
http://www.svobodanews.ru/archive/ru_news_zone/20100328/17/17.html?id=1995554
the Udmurtia region is now using Moscow time as well (Europe/Samara was
in use in exactly two regions: Samara and Udmurtia). This link says "the
amount of time zones in Russia is reduced from 11 to 9". I think you can
assume, that Samara and Kamchatka zones are not existing any more.
