DNA reveals that Jews not from the Middle East

A study of mitochondrial DNA has revealed that 80% of Ashkenazi Jews are from Europe, not the Middle East:

It this study is accurate, doesn't that mean they are not descended from Abraham and therefore not part of God's covenant with Abraham which promised "greater Israel" to his offspring?

How can one have a right of return to a place where neither they nor their ancestors have ever been?
