The cooperation between the Russian Federation, the People's Republic of China, and Japan in the field of energy is one of the major factors defining the foreign policies of these countries and determining the strategic environment in North-East Asia. The nature of future relations between the three powers (whether cooperative or confrontational) in the field of energy will have an impact on both regional and global security. It will also directly affect the energy security of Poland and the European Union.
