Logging Night time

Good morning,
I've been looking on the searcher and on google but I don't find the right answers to my question. In a flight from the US to Moscow, for example, taking-off daylight from the US, just before sunset, and landing in Europe again daylight, after having "crossed the night" over the ocean, how shall i log the time? Is it only the part that I really have flown in the dark? For example, 4 hours? Appart from that, I know in the US it says things about one houre after sunset and one hour before dawn (30min in EASA), but on flights West to East and East to West this doesn't make a lot of sense. Some colleagues tell me that if more than half of the flight was night time, then all the flight can be logged night time, but I don't find anything written on that. I am interested on both FAA and EASA rules for this.
Thank you.
