There is no geographical conception of “Europe”, it is a political and cultural term. Turkey and Russia are alternatively considered either part or outside of this conceptualization in part or in full. You will have people arguing for either so it’s obvious that this is not a clear cut situation. Nevertheless I wouldn’t consider Turkey as part of Europe, if nothing else Bosphorus makes for a cleaner cut off point for the cultural area of Europe.
