Summary/Abstract: What is Hungary’s attitude to relations with Poland and to the Three Seas Initiative? If one accepts Orbán’s vision presented during his 2009 Warsaw visit, the TSI would seem a perfect fit; here are 13 states, seeking to develop close regional cooperation along the north-south axis in the fields of infrastructure and energy, and to close the gap between “Eastern” and “Western” Europe and strengthen the CEE’s competitiveness. The leaders of these states have repeatedly emphasised that this project is not about building an alternative to the West.
