Some of them do have East Asian admixture, I know because they are apart of my family and they are not Anatolian but Cypriot.

Turkish Cypriots and Northeast Turks often have no Asian admixture. The first are just Turkized native Cypriots, who left the Hellenic culture once they became Islamized and then took on Turkish culture.

This guy's Turkish Cypriot side doesn't seem to be typically Turkish, these are his Ancestry results from the video:

Italy 36%
Germanic Europe 33%
England, Wales & NW Europe 13%
Sweden 4%
Greece & the Balkans 3%

Turkey & the Caucasus 9%

Africa South-Central HG 2%

I thought they were mainland immigrant descendants.

"Genetic analysis of Y chromosomes (inherited from father to son) revealed that Turkish and Greek Cypriots have a high genetic affinity and share primarily a common pre-Ottoman paternal ancestry. Both Turkish and Greek Cypriots have a minor genetic relation with surrounding populations, mainly with Calabrians (southern Italy), Albanians (particularly for Greek Cypriots), Lebanese and Libyans (only for Turkish Cypriots). The genetic affinity between Calabrians and Cypriots could be a result of a common ancient Greek (Achaean) genetic contribution to both populations."

Turkish Cypriots are just Cypriots who go to the mosque.

Most of them, not all

Most are converts or were absorbed into Cypriot population. The families that went in the 60s and 70s are Turks though

Are there Kurds sent among the settlers or do they make it a point to send only Turks?
