museum institute will be enlarged 2.5 times by 2015, when the 100th
anniversary of the genocide will be marked, Hayk Demoyan, director
of the museum, said at a news conference today.

possible to present facts of the Armenian genocide in a new light.
The bulk of construction is planned to be completed, and after that
