The government and the parliament of Germany must come to terms and recognize the Armenian Genocide by 2015, research scholar at the Free University of Berlin Tessa Hoffman told journalists in Yerevan on Wednesday.
She said that the Armenians' efforts to convince the world community to recognize the Armenian Genocide inspire her in her work.
Hoffman said that she would spend the award she received from the Armenian President on Wednesday on the construction of an ecumenical monument and the publication of works by 16 Armenian writers arrested in Constantinople during the massacres of 1915.
22 scientists and cultural workers were granted a presidential award on Wednesday. The prize is worth $10,000.
