The reason they say that is that this is exactly what the Russians are doing.

Peaceful migrants who are just "refugees" with 0 records of violence from them

When there's a war at your border, accepting migrants from the aggressor and its only ally in the region is probably not a good idea.

Why can't Russia take care of them if they are going through Russian territory?

Because they are a cheap economic and political weapon like this.
