Yes different nations all have their own pedantic legalese on what constitutes a 'migrant' but if someone physically moves from one country to another long-term they are objectively a migrant
Here's a dictionary definition of the term:
i.e. one who has migrated(Migrated is the past tense and past participle of the verb migrate, meaning to move from one place or region to another)
Makes sense, thanks.
