MANY EXPERTS call the 21st century an era of integration and unification. Integration processes at the interstate level proceed "through the formation of regional economic associations of states and coordination of their domestic and foreign economic policies."1 Regional integration is one of the most significant factors in current political affairs. Whereas the period from the 17th century to the beginning of the 20th century saw the formation of independent nation states, by the second half of the 20th century, this process was. Today, national economies are moving towards integration with each other, gradually forming a common market with more intensive movement of goods, capital, labor, services, and information.

| Summary/Abstract |
As a result of the "shale revolution," the U.S. could emerge as a liquefied natural gas (LNG) exporter. APR countries, major LNG importers - Japan and South Korea included, became a premium market for its commercialization. Due to economic factors of U.S. LNG projects, the U.S. has determined the trend of LNG trade development in the region, and its political leaders intend to use the exports for providing "energy dominance" of the U.S. The aim of this article is to appreciate the prospects of transforming LNG exports into a tool of economic and political influence of the U.S. in the APR.

| Summary/Abstract |
REGIONAL INTEGRATION has developed into an important factor of international relations. Today, practically all states on the map of the world belong to at least one regional association. In this context, the United States and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam offer the best example of an active involvement in the integration processes unfolding in the APR, the talks on the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) in particular. The region is increasingly often described as a locomotive of the world's economic development in the twenty-first century.
