Can we expect some new significant acquisition in those regions? In the period from 2011 to 2013, when the contracting of significant operations in Algeria started, the business operations of Energoprojekt Hidroinženjering were dominantly based on this market, in some moments, it occupied up to 70% of total business operations. We were aware of the fact that, apart from the positive effects of the execution of a large number of contracts, basing the business operations on only one market can represent a potential problem. Bearing this in mind, we have tried to increase our engagement in other foreign markets, primarily in Jordan and Peru, but also in the rest of the world. After a period of "silence" on the market of Peru, last year we contracted and successfully implemented a project for the construction of the “Poechos” Dam superelevation in the north of the country.
