The analysis shows that the “LNG impact” can be traced to three distinct yet interconnected dimensions – national, regional and global. The article argues that if handled with adequate understanding of the tendencies affecting this sector, Poland’s status as a player on the LNG market can be turned into an asset and boost its international standing vis-a-vis other LNG importing states and exporters alike. Over time, “LNG diplomacy” could become one of the defining features of its international engagement.  </p> ER -
