Because Armenia decided that they wanted Russia's help to protect them. And I don't believe they've asked the international community for help either, at least not like Ukraine did.

Ask Russia where the help is.

Do you think the west will just help every country if they just ask nicely? Sounds naiv.

And Armenia just more or less gave up their thrust in Russia, so do you think Europe and the US will aid to help tomorrow?

France and Germany would likely step up their ties with Armenia. If that were to translate into immediate military support I don't know, as this is happening in what Russia considers its "backyard".
