Do all Turks from the aegean and Balkan regions have Albanian blood?

[Dukaginzade]

I'm reading some articles about the Anatolian Albanians, and it seems that Albanians almost turned Turkey into Albania. Or so I've read. Some officials feared that due to the massive influx of Albanians.

I was wondering how true the statement: Every Turk from Aegean and Thrace has Balkan ancestry is? More precisely, Albanian.

Balkan yes
Albanian no

That's very interesting. One of my buddies told me after ww1 50% of Anatolia was dead and the Balkan and Caucasian migrants replenished the numbers.

How true or exaggerated is that?

It's true that we have millions of Albanians living here for generations, most of them are mixed (Albo-Turkish) today and they may identify as Turkish, if you mean them yes but if you generalize all Aegean/Balkan Turks, then no of course, marrying someone Albanian is pretty common as we don't differ them but it's far from all of us having Albanian blood.

Of course not all Turks from West have Albanian ancestor. You Albos are always delusional. But many people have partly have non-Turkish ancestor. (like 1/2, 1/4, 1/8 etc. and not specifically Albanian) (Bosnian, Albanian, Georgian, Kurdish, Arab, Circassian, Laz etc. etc. There are many ethnic minority in Türkiye) For example I'm partly Georgian and and there is a claim that my grandmother's grandfather was Albanian.

Do all Germans from Nordrhein-Westfalen have Turkish blood? Your question is as funny as this question.

[Dukaginzade]

What is this comparison? Albanians have been migrating to Anatolia since Ottoman times and you're comparing that to guesworkers that migrated in the 60s? Big LoL.

Did you do a DNA test?
