In search of its energy security, the European Union pursues the policy of diversification. In the gas market, the main form of this policy is devising of alternative gas pipeline projects, such as Nabucco. In this paper, we describe how the EU diversifies its gas supply in order to decrease its dependence on Russia as the biggest gas exporter. We also point to the difficulties in pursuing this policy trying to forecast the consequences of alternative pipelines construction for the gas market and cooperation among states in general.
