President Trump announced Tuesday that he will launch an energy security collaborative with Poland to advance his energy diversity agenda for Europe, an initiative meant to counter the influence Russia wields through its supply of gas to Europe.

"All across Europe, no nation should be dependent on a single foreign supplier of energy," Trump said during a joint press conference with Polish President Andrzej Duda, who is in Washington as part of his first official state visit to the White House.

Strategically smart.
We have an abundance of LNG due to Shale Fracturing
which Poland, as well as the Baltic's can use, to counter
their dependence of Russia.
All that is needed are Tank Farms to hold the LNG along
the North Sea Coastline until the LNG is piped.

An abundance of Natural Gas.  We could use more LNG to meet the world demand but those plants take a long time and a lot of money to build, not to mention the long permitting process.

LNG is not moved in pipelines any real distance.  LNG is -260°F Methane.
