The EU definition is "organisms in which the genetic material (DNA) has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally by mating or natural recombination". https://publications.jrc.ec.europa.eu/repository/handle/JRC5...

I'm honestly not sure which side of the definition this falls under. It certainly doesn't occur naturally.
