It's unclear to me if transiting through CDG = traveling within the EU. Common sense says no, but I'm wondering if others have experience with the matter. To clarify, my routing is West Africa-CDG-USA, so 2E to 2E. Am I correct that under this situation, my cat wouldn't really really be entering the EU and only US regulations (my destination country) would apply?
