 As Martin suggested:
 
   |  > env TZ=/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris date
   |   Fri Apr 10  11:45:20 UTC 2020
   |  > env TZ=/usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Athens date
   |   Fri Apr 10 14:45:49 EEST 2020
   |  
   |  I see UTC in place of CEST
 
 That indicates that either /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris (the file)
 doesn't exist, or it has been corrupted locally.   Fetch or build a
 replacement version (if you have the sources locally, in
 /usr/src/external/public-domain/tz/dist/europe (or some other place
 than /usr/src - where the sources were extracted doesn't matter) then
 you should be able to do
 	
 	zic -d . /usr/src/external/public-domain/tz/dist/europe
 
 after which you should have Europe/Paris that you can copy to
 /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Paris to put the file back as it should be.
 
 Or you can just extract it from your (or any other recent) base
 distribution set (for this file it doesn't matter which release
 the distribution is for, any will do, provided the set was built
 relatively recently - say the past 6 months or so, though Europe/Paris
 probably hasn't changed in at least a few years).
