What do you think about the statement many of the Arabs in Sweden don't call themselves immigrants they call themselves settlers?

Ok, so I don’t know how factual this is, but a gentleman said that countries like Sweden have assimilation problems, because many of the Muslim Arabs going there don’t have the attitude of being Swedish, but rather of settling in the country and maintaining their way of life.
What I don’t know is if it’s just a translation thing.
I can see his point that in English it means two very different things. America expects assimilation, although that doesn’t exclude keeping some of your own traditions and culture. I don’t know the attitudes in Sweden.
