TAP positively influences Albania’s construction sector
The continuation of the project for construction of the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP), which envisages delivery of Azerbaijani gas to Europe, has had a positive effect on Albania’s construction sector, according to the data released by the Bank of Albania.
At the same time, the growth of foreign direct investment inflows to the country paves way for the development of this sector, said the Bank of Albania.
