Remember when Trump said that there were terrorists posing as migrants and we all laughed at him? This is just the latest attempt of far-right politicians to dehumanize migrants.

And what would they do in Europe? Just give migrants a worse name? Because fighting wouldn't help anything and probably trigger article 5. Russia can't exactly claim they aren't affiliated with Wagner anymore.

Didn't Russia just integrate Wagner into their military and left only those who went to Belarus to keep on fighting for Prighozin/Wagner?

No, the fighters who opted to sign contracts with Ru MoD left Wagner. The fighters who chose to remain in Wagner had to go to Belarus.
