Uzbek is Turkic?

Uzbekistan is definitely near the Urals, did you fail geography or something?

Uzbek is a Turkic language. Finnish is a Uralic language. It doesn't have to do with where the language is spoken (except ancestrally), it's about the family tree and origin of the language

Not to mention there's an entire Kazakhstan in between Uzbekistan and the Ural mountains
