Summary/Abstract: The TSI states are not a cohesive bloc, not even on the NS2 issue, and it seems that the Warsaw summit succeeded in undermining the scepticism about the political aspects of the Initiative. The aims of the TSI were thrown into relief and incorporated into the common concern for the cohesion and strengthening of the EU. At the same time, multi-dimensional cooperation within the Visegrad Group will not come to harm through the TSI, and it is even possible to speak of the complementarity of formats. For Poland, the Visegrad Group will remain the principal format of multi-lateral intergovernmental regional cooperation in the EU.
