Jews have been in Israel as Israel for longer (and previously as the Canaanites before Judaism). The issue is a status of a country, where the Israeli independence was declared and won in 1948 at the time when the Armenians remaining in Armenia were very firmly under Moscow rule, so much there was even no threat of Armenian terrorism within the Soviet Union itself until around 1988 (when the breakdown of the USSR was already underway in other regions).
