The US military is flexing its muscles near China's maritime areas with South Korea in military exercises.

On November 12, 2025, the USS George Washington aircraft carrier strike group of the US Navy conducted a formation sailing at sea with the Republic of Korea Navy during the Carrier Strike Group Exercise (CSGEX). CSGEX is a bilateral exercise aimed at enhancing naval interoperability, strengthening the US-South Korea alliance, and demonstrating both sides' shared commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific. The USS George Washington (CVN 73) is the most important forward-deployed aircraft carrier of the US military, symbolizing the United States' long-term commitment to maintaining a free and open Indo-Pacific, while fighting alongside allies and partners in the largest numbered fleet of the US Navy.
