The Italian government has dismissed reports that Foreign Minister Emma Bonino was forced to wear a headscarf on a recent visit to Iran, it seems.
The reports - claiming Bonino was pressurised into wearing a head covering by Iranian officials - were published by conservative Iranian news agency Jahan News and picked up by Israel's Haaretz daily. The Italian foreign ministry has called them "a fanciful reconstruction", according to the Corriere della Sera.
