Let the pan-Turkist and anti-Bulgar butthurt begin.
One of the most important discoveries about Bulgarian history was recently published [10], [13], [19]. It shows that an entire array of previously unknown sources written in four languages - Old Bulgarian, Greek, Old German and Hebrew-Khazar - unanimously describe proto-Bulgarians as a quite numerous people [20]. In all of these sources proto-Bulgarians were referred to using similar expressions: “countless” [21], “too big and enormous population” (The Miracles of St. Demetrius of Thessaloniki), “numerous as the sand by the sea” (the letter from the Kagan of Khazaria Joseph; 961 AD), “so numerous that they did not need to build fortresses for defence” (“The Bavarian Geographer”) [20]. Some similar expressions were used even by the early Bulgarian rulers Omurtag and Presian [22]. Archaeological investigations have recently revealed that proto-Bulgarians represented a substantial part (evaluated in at least 32% [23]and even 60% [13], [19]) of the early Bulgarian population. An indirect indicator of the numerousness of proto-Bulgarians was the great number of their victorious war campaigns over the powerful Eastern Roman Empire (including the crushing defeat of Byzantium by Asparukh in 680 AD [20]) and the victory over the Arabs in 716 AD, which besieged Constantinople. Only a state with an army exceeding 100,000 soldiers was capable for such attacks. Obviously, the studies mentioned above suggest that proto-Bulgarians played a substantial role in the formation of the Bulgarian people.

Asparukh = Iranic
Proto-Bulgarians were Iranians in disguise and got assimilated by Slavs

Then if not why so many Bulgarians greet Chuvash as 'Volga Bulgarians, asdasdghjfghikj lol haha:- It must be difficult to be Bulgarian. What Bulgars were isn't argued.

Not having "Asian Y-DNA" doesn't make them non-Turkic. I'm quite sure the Turkic groups of Europe had R1a-Z280 and other 'West Eurasian' haplogroups for example.
The Bulgars could have been Chuvash-like.
