SEOUL: The USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) arrived at a naval port in the southeastern city of Busan on Saturday (June 22), the Navy said, in a show of force against evolving North Korean threats emboldened by the North's deepening military cooperation with Russia.
The nuclear-powered aircraft carrier of the Carrier Strike Group 9 entered the naval base in Busan, 320 kilometers southeast of Seoul, early Saturday, joined by the Aegis-equipped destroyer USS Halsey and the USS Daniel Inouye, according to the Navy.
