Migration by itself doesn’t indicate whether you’re referring to domestic-only movement, where people migrate inside of a country, or domestic-to-foreign where they cross a border, or foreign-to-foreign movement.
It all depends on the boundary you set.
If your chosen boundary is Europe, people moving to Europe are immigrating there, and people moving from Europe are emigrating there.
If your chosen boundary is the US, immigration is moving to the US while emigration is moving from the US.
Since migration isn’t specific and can refer to any of the above cases, I prefer transmigration since “trans-” refers to “across” which I often interpret as “out from and in to”.
We don’t need to give up on prepositions in order to have more accurate language.
It depends on where you’re speaking from.

This is way too confusing for me to follow but it sounds vaguely like we mean the same thing.
