First of all, I haven't seen any article or news story to suggest any cash flow from the European Union. The reason we have so much support from Russia is because we sold half our industry to them. If Armenia was invaded, Russia would lose a lot of industry that it owns on Armenian soil.
That said, if any nation gives Armenia money, it's a gift. When these nations give some money to Armenia, it's nothing but chump change in exchange for some support from Armenia. The politics of foreign aid and donation is far more complex than you can take it at face value. Also, in terms of taxes, it's VERY little. The aid that the United States gives to Armenia costs me less than $1 in annual taxes.
