(CVN 70), a US nuclear-powered aircraft carrier, is expected to enter the eastern seaboard on June 25 to curb large-scale provocations by North Korea.

When he arrives at the eastern sea, Calvin Suh, who is sailing toward the Korean Peninsula, plans to carry out a "military force demonstration" in the form of military pressure on North Korea through intensive US-ROK joint training.

A senior government official said Thursday that the United States is negotiating a joint exercise involving our government and Calvin's carrier flyers, and that Calvin Johnson will enter the East Coast.

Originally, Calvin Suh was expected to depart from Singapore and arrive in the Korea Theater of Operations (KTO) on April 15-16.

However, Calvin Suh said he did not choose the shortest distance to the Korean peninsula. According to a report by the US Navy on Social Network Services (SNS), Calvin Suhne passed through the Sunda Strait in Indonesia, southwest of Singapore, on the 15th.

Calvin Suh said that North Korea had unveiled a new type of intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) at a ceremony marking the 105th anniversary of Kim Il Sung's birthday. In the wake of the 85th anniversary of the establishment of the North Korean army, It will launch a joint operation.

At the beginning of the week, three carriers, including Calvin Suhon and CVN 76, currently under construction in Yokosuka, Japan, and CVN 68, which is currently sailing into the western Pacific Ocean, will be located on the Korean peninsula. .

A government source said that the operation of three aircraft carriers in a light bulb is unusual in the military aspect, demonstrating the US's view of North Korea.

Other sources said the Trump administration is demonstrating deterrence by acting on its behalf. "We expect to continue to be completely different from the previous administration."
