Are Turks Middle Eastern or Caucasian?

The Turkic peoples, who speak languages belonging to the Turkic language family and are primarily found in Turkey and other countries in Europe and Asia, are generally considered to be part of the larger group of peoples known as the "Caucasian" peoples, who are native to the Caucasus region. 

The Caucasus region is a mountainous area between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, including parts of present-day Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, and Russia.

The term "Caucasian" is often used to refer to the peoples of the Caucasus region and is generally considered a cultural, rather than a racial, term. The Turkic peoples, who are native to the Caucasus region, are considered part of the Caucasian people. 

However, it is essential to note that "Caucasian" is not scientifically or genetically accurate and is not used consistently or uniformly in all contexts.

Turkey is also worth noting that it is a transcontinental country, straddling Europe and Asia. While most of Turkey is located in Asia, a small part of the country is in Europe, and it is sometimes considered part of Europe and the Middle East.
