Plywood boxes concealed the nude statues at the museum in Rome |
Italian hospitality for the visiting Iranian President Hassan Rouhani has stretched to covering up nude statues.

But several nudes there were hidden to avoid offending the Iranian president.I suppose it never occurred to them to hold the meeting elsewhere.
