All Iranic speaking groups have some connection to eachother, doesn't neccesarily mean they have to speak the same language, look the same. They have 100% the same genetics. The Turks are a hybrid race of Iranian (most likely Scythian) and Mongol ancestry. This doesn't mean you can claim to be the rightful descendants of the Scythians. Your language, culture, appearance and even genetics prove this.
