"This is a completely inaccurate story and a clear build-up with specific intentions,” Ghasemi said on Saturday in reaction to certain foreign media claims.

Ghasemi added that the news is basically false as the two ministers visited the Italian capital of Rome on two different days to address the Mediterranean Dialogue Conference.
