React vs Angular: "MVC"

There's a question that has come up for me a few times in interviews: which part of the MVC pattern does React occupy, and which does Angular occupy? The answer I've been giving, which is what I think the interviewer wants to hear, is that React is just the V and Angular is full client-side MVC. But my experience using both libraries/frameworks is that it's a lot more blurred than that, as things have been evolving recently.

Thoughts?
