The word " Gagaus " comes from " Gk Oghuz " means " Blue Oghuz " .

- Oghuz is a well known Turkish tribe .

But its not about Central Asia either. Gagauzs are living in Moldovia, Romania, and Ukrain.

Yes, but the term Steppe Nomads probably fits the best when it comes to them (although they have been settled for a while). And since this section talks about various aspects of ethnicity, it's probably best to put it here. If we're going to talk about the Krim Tatars here, I don't see why the Gagauz should be any different.

Yes , they are pure Turks ( may be mixed but their Traditions are still remained the same ) ; such a significany that they form their fingers like a Head of a Wolf before coming inside a Hall , Cafe ...etc :)

Sure Gagauz are Turkish

This
reaserch studies the genetic of Gagauz, a trurkic people in easetrn eaurope and says that:
Despite this low level of differentiation, tree reconstruction and principle component analyses allowed a distinction between BalkanCarpathian (Macedonians, Romanians, Moldavians, Ukrainians and Gagauzes) and eastern Mediterranean (Turks, Greeks and Albanians) population groups.

Now the question is that how did Turkish language distribute between an european, christan people, in Anatoila and Balkan.

 
I am not really sure whether I understand what is your question. Turkic gagauz lived in the Balkans for several hundred years mixing mainly with the Orthodox "Balkan-Carpatian," so is it still strange that their genetic code changed in this environment ?
 
The Turkic question did not distribute between European christian people. Turkic muslim people first moved to Europe converted to the Orthodox Christianity and then their genetic code gradually changed, since I suppose they had to take wifes from their neighbors.
 
Is the problem still there?
