Is common to find Cypriots in U.K, I've always considered them as White like Greek, Spanish, Italian type..... but it seems they are more related with the Syrian Arabs, nothing wrong with it just surprised that their European admixture is so small like 13%.

with Cypriot and see how similar they are.
Y-Dna haplogroups are found at the following frequencies in Cyprus : J (43.07% including 6.20% J1), E1b1b (20.00%), R1 (12.30% including 9.2% R1b), F (9.20%), I (7.70%), K (4.60%), A (3.10%).[117] J, K, F and E1b1b
They are do not cluster with Greeks or any other Europeans on the genetic map.
Their closest relatives are Syrians, Druze, Jews and Lebanese.
Recent genetic clustering analyses of ethnic groups are consistent with the
close ancestral relationship between the Druze and Cypriots, and also identified similarity to the general Syrian and Lebanese populations, as well as a variety of Jewish lineages (Ashkenazi, Sephardi, Iraqi, and Moroccan) (Behar et al 2010).[52]
