Does anybody have an explanation for it?

Must be the founder effect. The Chinese described the medieval Kirghiz as white, I think they would have gotten Mongolicized with time.

That's where R1a is originally from.

Extremely high frequency of a single Haplogroup, especially if the majority is also downstream to the same clade, usually points to either founder (Elite) or bottle-neck effect.

This map and the study from which it is from is pure crap. Z2125 peaks among Pashtuns in Central and South Afghanistan. Also there is quite much of it among Tatars, Caucasians and other non-Slavic Russians. It looks like they randomly draw some lines on the map.

Probably Iranic. From Scythians/Saka tribes of Central Asia.

Nice greetings from Nepalese Mongoloids
