President Hassan Rouhani called on the European Union to fully implement the nuclear deal and pressure US into complying with its commitments by sending the Western country a strong message, APA reported citing Mehr news.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani made the remarks in a meeting with Belgian Chamber chairman Siegfried Bracke on Saturday in Tehran, adding “The Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) can serve as a good model for settling the complex international and regional issues.”

“We believe that the only entity that can confirm Iran’s commitment to its JCPOA-related obligations is the International Atomic Energy Organization, and according to the Agency’s reports, the Islamic Republic has complied to all of its obligations,” Rouhani stressed, saying Iran in turn expects the other sides to the deal to do the same.
