When we look at the United States, they concluded 15 agreements in the same period that we didn't conclude any. Is it a matter of human resources? Do we need more trade negotiators? Is it a lack of interest on the other side, the trading partners we are currently negotiating with? Are they content to have agreements with the U.S. and not with us? Can we target a little more the reasons we're falling behind?
