Work in a foreign country

No, unless you had a filing requirement with a foreign country and paid them foreign taxes on the income you reported to them.  Since you were working for a US-Based company where you were sent on a temporary assignment to a foreign country, there is generally no filing requirement to the foreign country. There are some exceptions however, but they happen rarely.
