Turks have 12% mongoloid dna on average in dodecad k12b and eurogenes k12b and there are many studies that also proves this.

12% is large enough to qualify as having something else mixed in. that's equivalent to having a mongoloid great grandparent

thats just me but i personally consider people who are up to 1/4 mongoloid rest caucasian still as caucasian . especially Turks who have around 11-12 % on average only . the reason is that mongoloid is less "strong" than lets say SSA or s-indian / AASI etc. and people who have some mong will still look either caucasian or near on caucasian enough . i also consider many castizos as caucasian too

an example for this is Turkish actor Mert Yazicioglu who i made a thread of :

you'll have a shit ton of people who are 25% mongoloid and look turnid or turanid influenced so no 1/4 and even 1/8 is too much

they are mixed race like new World people so NO.
12% is large enough to qualify as having something else mixed in. that's equivalent to having a mongoloid great grandparent
we're not pure caucasoid as genetically
well thats my opinion . i consider turks with some turanid influence still caucasian
What about circassians/abkhazians how much mongolid dna do they have?

Do you think cricassians with 5%+ mongoloid mixed with turks?
circassians from israel are also 5-7% mongoloid so i doubt so. it is more linely that the mongoloid in circassians comes from steppe invaders throughout the millenniums

Circassians' Mongoloid ancestry comes from steppe nomads such as Scythians/Sarmatians
yes. if you look at it most north caucasian ethnicities have at least a little bit of mongoloid admixture whereas georgians to the south generally lack it because north caucasus transitions into east european plain and steppe nomads would have had minimal natural barriers/resistance to oppose their penetration deep into the north caucasian mountain frontier
