ALL the Indo-European languages have their roots in the area that is now the country of Turkey.

But the Turks conquered that area not so long ago. So the Turks don't really belong there. They are Mongols by origin.

It's a very complicated area of the world that goes back 10,000 years. Remember that the Black Sea flooded in 5,600BC. (That was probably Noah's flood and I believe Noah was a proto-Celtic. So...) Who belongs there is hard to say.
