A French carrier strike group, guided by the nuclear-powered Charles de Gaulle, is on the move to the Indo-Pacific, countering China's aggressive maritime actions in the region. It's France's only nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and the largest in Europe. It is the second nuclear-powered carrier, after the United State’s USS Nimitz class, to conduct exercises with the Indian Navy, strengthening the strategic partnership between France and India. This deployment supports France's strategy to boost military cooperation with Indo-Pacific nations, including planned drills with Japan and the Philippines.
