Turkish identity is bizarre. Westerners will call you Greek. Southern europeans will call you Mongolian. Mongolians will call you Greek. Turks of Central Asia will call you Greek. Greeks will call you Greek when you identify as Turkic. If you don't they will call you Mongolian.
This has always been weird to me. It doesn't happen to anyone else to this extend.
The Turkish identity is a joke. It is based on the Kemalist quote "How happy is the one who says he's a Turk". Our ethnicity is based on a quote from a jew.
This is how they assimilated most.
People subconsciously know this. Our identity is very fragile. Now with the migrant crisis in turkey and rise in islamism it will confuse people further.
The average Turkish person is not a mix of all neighbours. The average Turkish person does not have Kurdish. The average Turkish person does not look east asian. It is very simple what Turkish people are. They are the natives of their land.
Here I have made a post covering the history of how we are majority native in genes if you are interested in that. I will expand on it in a future post.

Here is Medieval Turkish people. You can see they are almost half Turkic. This changed because the Greeks were a higher demographic than Turks. Leading to more Greek genetics in Turkish.
This post is simply to show the Turkish dna from people who do not have foreign ancestry.
You can see. Turkish dna is simple. Anatolian Greek and 15-20% Turkic. Balkan Turks are full Balkan except a few percentages.
