TEHRAN, Iran— Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani told the United Nations’ nuclear chief Yukiya Amano on Sunday that his agency should be fair in its implementation of a nuclear deal reached between Iran and the world powers, according to a report on Rouhani’s website.

Amano arrived in Tehran earlier in the day to discuss outstanding issues; it was Amano’s second visit to Iran in the past three months.

“Under the deal, we will voluntarily carry the additional protocol and we hope you have a fair observation on implementation of the deal,” Rouhani told Amano. “The agency will have an effective role in implementation of the deal.”
