♪ ♪ ♪ soon, president biden will welcome south korea's president to the white house ahead of a critical meeting. biden and president yoon suk-yeol set to roll out a new plan to boost u.s. and south korean cooperation amid north korea's escalating threats. our correspondents are covering this meeting from washington to korea. cnn's arlette saenz is joining us from the white house. cnn's jeff zeleny is in washington, d.c. for us and paula hancocks is live from seoul, south korea. let us start with arlette. can you tell us what is happening at this hour? we heard the band playing the last time we spoke to you not too long ago. what's going on there now? >> sarah, any minute now we are expecting south korean president yoon arriving at the white house setting off the pomp and

circumstance that president biden is holding for him, but it also comes as the two leaders are set to announce a significant agreement when it comes to efforts to try to deter north korea's nuclear capabilities. this comes at a time when officials say north korea has continued its nuclear provocations and this agreement which is called the washington declaration. the two leaders will unveil over the course of the day and one key element of it includes deploying strategic assets to the region to amp up the visible efforts towards deterrence and that includes sending a u.s., nuclear ballistic submarine to south korea. the first time that will be done since the 1980s and it's a move that could upset north korea, but it also comes as efforts to try to engage in any diplomacy with north korea over nuclear weapons appears to have gone unanswered. so this is a time when south koreans and the u.s. are traying to strengthen their cooperations when it comes to nuclear

deterrents. there are a host of other issues that will be on the agenda today including cyber initiatives and the economic agenda, as well. this is also the first time that the two leaders will be holding formal meetings since those leaks of the classified pentagon documents, some which related to south korea. just to run you through a little bit of the course of the day in just a short while. they will be kicking off the official arrival ceremony. as you see behind me. troops from various military branches will be here and we expect that the two leaders will be speaking and the two mrzs will then break off for a bilateral meeting which will be followed by a press conference which has become a rarity here at the white house. this will also be the first time president biden has the full opportunity to answer questions from reporters since he launched his re-election bid just yesterday and in all of this state visit, the second that the white house is hosting has the chef who helped cure eight the menu as well as

performance from a trio of broadway stars. we expect the visit to get under way with discussions about north korea's nuclear capabilities very high on the agenda. >> jeff, let me bring you in on this. arlette is pointing out this is the second state visit from president biden and the day after he's formally announced his re-election bid. what is the significance that you see for the second state visit and this timing. the president has chosen south korea. >> certainly, it is very significant. it is just underscoring the importance and the developments in the region. the first state visit was last fall with french president emanuel macron, but this visit from south korea underscores essentially that the idea of diplomacy or the idea that pressure with north korea is essentially off the table. the u.s. has not had any type was talks with them. of course, in the trump administration there were face to face talks between president

trump and kim jong-un, but what has happened is the nuclear program has grown and multiplied. so president biden is signing the washington agreement and the washington accord with the south korean president and also sending a message to china and that, perhaps, is the most important message underscoring all of of this, the union between the u.s. and south korea so it is very important the full pomp and circumstance with this arrival and the meeting that will take place later today. it is simply a coincidence that this is coming a day after the president announced his re-election campaign. that was want schedule when this state visit was scheduled, but it is certainly all part of the play here with president biden set to take questions today as arlette said, a very rare occurrence in this white house. he's held fewer press conferences than any modern president and he will be taking questions on south korea and the re-election campaign and this is the nuclear capability in the

region. >> paula hancocks, jeff zeleny sets it up perfectly in seoul. donald trump met, and that lowered substantially into the last year. what does south korea want or think it needs out of this meeting because they're actually for the first time in a long time have been serious discussions about the south koreans saying maybe it's time to put nuclear weapons back in south korea. >> that's exactly right, john. when you have kim jong-un, the north korean leader saying he wants an exponential increase in the amount of nuclear weapons arsenal he has it is not surprising that here in seoul there are raised concerns. president yoon took power just under a year ago and he has consistently said that he wants more reassurances from washington. the deterrence and the nuclear

umbrella that the u.s. offers to the allies needed to be strengthened in this particular case because of the nuclear threat that pyongyang was showing to the world and to its closest neighbor. so what he has gone to washington to get effectively is a reassurance. a reassurance that the united states will be there in a time of crisis if necessary. u.s. officials and experts would argue that they already have that deterrence that they have 28,500 u.s. soldiers based here in south korea and hundreds of thousands of americans based here in south korea, so they are here for the long haul. as you say, that has been an increasing call for south korea to have its nuclear weapons program. ten years ago, this was a fringe argument and you never spoke about it with much credibility and i certainly wouldn't be talking about it on air, but now it is a very real possibility.

there is a majority of south koreans in all recent polls who believe that the south koreans should have their own nuclear weapons program and the argument is if north korea has nuclear weapons so should south korea have these weapons and the hope after this particular summit from washington would be that that, that this washington declaration and this increase and the strengthening of extended deterrence from washington might actually silence some of those calls because the u.s., many in the region and many in the world do not want south korea to go down that path. >> all right. just tells you how tensions have risen over these many years. paula hancocks, arlette saenz and jeff zeleny, thank you very much for joining us. you are seeing the pictures and we will bring you the ceremony as it happens. >> it looks like it will be under way shortly. you see the secretary of state coming out and the treasury secretary all coming out. you can see this is going to be

getting under way very shortly. >> very soon, kate. they don't let the vice president wait too long. once she's out there i expect to see the president of the united states and the president of south korea very soon. this just in to cnn. two united airlines flights departed from houston and one is suspected to have been a bird strike. all of this is happening as the acting head of the aviation administration is facing tough questions as the agency deals with all kinds of issues, including in-flight violence and several near misses on runways and cnn's pete muntean is in washington with all of this. these close calls, pete, today what are you learning about that? >> let's talk about the close calls and the bird strikes. >> explain to me the bird strikes. what's going on with that? >> yeah.

two back-to-back bird strikes at george bush intercontinental airport in houston within 20 minutes of each other which is so interesting and coincidentally both involving united airlines flight according to united. united 847 on its way to chile and to las vegas and it sort of matches the case that we see in many of these bird strikes where it rarely ends well for the bird although almost always ends well for the passengers. we just saw a significant bird strike in ohio where an american airlines 737 hit a bird on takeoff and immediately had to return back to the airport and there was dramatic video and the crew had to shut down the right engine, although the 737 flies just fine on one. it's migratory bird season, john, and we've seen this a lot and over the last 30 years, the

faa says the number of bird strikes is going up and that could be in part due in part that the planes are getting quieter and more pilots are able to report this easily. gone are the days are the mountain of paperwork and it's simply filling out a form online. also according to mary schiavo, one of our airline experts on cnn, she says as the bird population goes up and conservation efforts go up there will be more bird strikes and we're seeing them with more rare birds where conservation have been put in place like eagles although most of the time it involves water fowl, smaller birds and considering the fact that airports on what used to be marshes. a lot of airports are near water and it rarely ends up being a big deal. thankfully, united said in these incidents no one onboard were hurt and the passengers were

able to get to their destinations okay. >> now the idea with the congestion and the traffic leading to closer calls at these airports. what about that, pete? >> today, acting faa administrator billy nolan will appear before a subcommittee and what is interesting is the faa is making news prior to this because there have been these high-profile runway incurrings, these close calls involving airliners since the start of this year. the national transportation safety board is investigating six incidents, very fitting here that the faa, rather, is convening this new safety review board of six different members. they will meet next month, over the next six months to try to find the risk factors in the aviation system. this is a shared onus between the airlines, operators, pilots, air traffic controllers and this follows a first-ever faa safety

summit. we've not seen one in the last decade and the last time they had one was back in 2009 after these incidents. jfk, austin, boston, burbank, sarasota, honolulu. y is these aso these are coast t and the faa wants to convene a review board to find out what's the problem. they're bringing former nasa administrators and airline pilots and the national transportation safety board and we'll see if they figure it out and putting in action in place, too. >> it's a problem and you don't want it to be a much, much worse problem. pete muntean, thank you very much. keep us posted. where am i going? kate bolduan. i believe i'm going to you. this just in, the white house has confirmed that a second american citizen has died in sudan. a sudanese american doctor killed in the capital. the white house announcing that

it is actively facilitating the departure as it's described by the spokesperson for the national security council john kirby, a relatively small number of americans who have indicated to them that they want to leave sudan. they're continuing to deploy u.s. intelligence to support land evacuations and routes. again again, this is according to the spokesperson for john kirby who will be joining us in the 11:00 hour with many questions around this. john? >> you are looking at live pictures from the white house. we believe president biden about to emerge with the president of south korea. this is the formal greeting at the beginning of this very important state visit. the south korean president yoon suk-yeol arriving and they have important business. let's listen in. ♪ ♪ >> distinguished guests, the

>> the beginning as we're watching this play out live. we see south korean president greeting the vice president and the cabinet that met some family members. i see there as well as they're just beginning what is the -- what is president biden's only second official state visit to be hosting at the white house since becoming president. this is a really a very big moment and the implications of what this 70-year alliance means for the united states and the indo-pacific region can't be overstated, john. >> as mentioned this is the second state visit and what you have is the level offer is money they you do not have for most

meetings here and pretty much the entire cabinet out there to greet not just president biden and the first lady, but also the south korean president yoon suk-yeol and as we were talking about with paula hancocks in south korea. this is a crucial visit for south korea here dealing with these nuclear provocations from the north, and he is getting deliverables in this meeting which is just kicking off right now before our eyes, promises of a seat at the table when it comes to nuclear weapons on the peninsula. south korea will not put nuclear weapons on the peninsula. they've been gone from the peninsula since 1991, but they want some say in the deterrence, sarah, and they're getting it. >> as we watched when they first got together. they didn't just shake hands, was there an actual hug. >> there was a hug. >> between the two presidents and there they go walking off and now we will hear remarks from them. they will take the podium and

they will make some brief remarks and there will be a press conference later before they'll be heading into this highly choreographed and expecting to have translation here. let's listen in once again. >> -- followed by the national anthem of the united states. ♪ ♪ ♪ ♪

they are inspecting the troops and we will hear from them in a bit first. while we watch these play out let's go out to our arlette saenz who is there watching this in person. can you tell us what you are expecting to hear? this is a very pivotal time and this pomp and circumstance, it's quite, big, isn't it? there's a lot going on here. >> yeah. right now we're really seeing the formality of the state visit playing out as you heard. there was the national anthems of both countries and the 21-gun salute as you can see taking place just on the south end of the ellipse at the white house complex and you now have each of the leaders reviewing the troops as there are troops of each of the military branches here in the u.s. in a short while we will be hearing remarks from president biden and south korean president yoon. i will note that last night they -- the bidens, president biden and the first lady jill biden accompanied the south korean leader and his wife mrs.

kim to the korean war memorial. that was the first opportunity to visit during this official state visit. this is only the second state visit that the biden white house has been able to hold. they held one in december for french president emanuel macron and the white house is delayed in being able to hold state visits due to the coronavirus pandemic, but today we are seeing all of that pomp and circumstance on full display and we are also expecting some pretty significant announcements and deliverables when it comes to this new agreement between the u.s. and south korea in its efforts to try to address north korea's nuclear provocations. included in that agreement come is called the washington declaration is a pretty significant element that says that the u.s. will be deploying strategic assets to south korea in an effort to show their deterrence efforts and that includes deploying a u.s. nuclear ballistic submarine.

the first time this will be sent to north korea since the 1980s and it's a move that could cause some consternation for the north koreans and it does come at a time when efforts to engage diplomatically with north korea trying to discuss their nuclear ambitions have really stalled out, those efforts have been unanswered at this time. so right now you have the u.s. and south korea president preparing to meet today as they're trying to show that they are working toward their nuclear deterrence of north korea. >> all right. let's listen in to the president who is speaking now. ♪ ♪

>> we will be jumping in to listen to president biden and president yoon when they do speak, but as we continue to see these fun picture, jeff zeleny, let me bring you back in. it does beg the question as there will be clearly a big focus foreign policy, the biden doctrine, joe biden's approach to foreign policy, his track record now on foreign policy, how important is that, and what role will that play in his re-election bid? >> kate, it is very important and these are striking images here seeing is president biden, the commander in chief, asking americans for a second chance at this, asking americans to elect the, indeed, oldest u.s. president to be their commander in chief. this is what he loves the most about the job, restoring these international alliances. one thing that has frustrated him is that he's been unable to bring the country together and he's revitalized international alliances and certainly his

foreign policy will be front and center in a presidential re-election bid particularly if he is running again against former president donald trump. it is a stark contrast. their policy differences certainly with north korea and certainly with the republic of korea overall in the nuclear posture, so this is one thing and it doesn't get as much attention, perhaps, in the domestic media or among voters and this is what president biden sinks his teeth into and his international alliances that he's been able to revitalize and this is one of the moments he's waited for all his life. >> the aviators are on. let's listen to the president of the united states. >> welcome to the white house. today, today we celebrate the iron clad alliance and the shared vision our future and the deep friendship that unites the republic of korea and the united

states. president yoon, mrs. kim, you were kind enough to host me in seoul last year just ten days after your inauguration and jill and i are honored to be able to return some of your hospitality with your second state visit to this administration.

[ speaking non-english ] >> the south korean president yoon suk-yeol now speaking and we just heard president biden welcoming the south korean president to the white house knowing this is the second state visit of president biden's administration noting that president biden had been to south korea with jill biden earlier in his administration and one thing that president biden did note and it is interesting, for this trip, it was just announced this morning

that the remains of a medal of honor winner had been identified on the korean peninsula, corporal luther strong -- luther story -- sorry, his incredible story around the puson perimeter earned him the medal of honor and his remains just identified now which is a pretty remarkable story all these many years later. jeff zeleny, the formality happening now, the speeches laying out what they will cover in the next couple of days. what happens next today, though, i think is what political watchers are watching very closely. yes. all of the diplomatic correspondents want to know the agreements that come out of this, but there will be a meeting in the oval office where reporters will get in and shout questions and maybe we will hear from the president and then a press conference and this is the first time he will answer questions since his announcement

that he is officially running for re-election. >> without a doubt. there are so many things to ask the president about, but you're right, there are not a lot of them. the white house says he engages with reporters every day, and the fact of the matter is this is one thing you can measure from administration to administration and president biden has not had as many formal news conferences as his predecessors in modern history and it is a fact of the numbers and he will be taking questions today and this coming on the heels of his re-election announcement yesterday. there are so many questions, of course, swirling in the political atmosphere here. is he anticipating a re-match with former president donald trump? the white house will absolutely welcome that and that is far from certain at this point and the republican presidential campaign is getting under way and from the biden campaign certainly former president donald trump also front and

center and also a cameo appearance for florida governor ron desantis and he will run against all of them and he will run against the maga agenda and he has questions of his own to answer, as well. first and foremost, why do seven in ten americans want another choice? why do independents want another choice? 2024? that is something that he'll have to make that argument and the compelling case why he still is the man for the job and perhaps most surprisingly in all of this, he's been able to succeed without having a democratic opponent, a major democratic opponent in the nomination fight. that is a huge advantage as we've seen from history and we know what happened with jimmy carter and george h.w. bush and president biden has escaped that and that is monumental. >> paula, folks are also interested to see if there is any -- what is said today, if there is any sign of any

lingering damage from what has -- what the pentagon, the leaked pentagon documents amongst other things suggested that the united states was eavesdropping and spying on allies including south korea. the documents reporting out a conversation reportedly between top south korean officials about the bind that they were in or the debate over sending artillery rounds to ukraine, and i'm curious if what you're hearing from there, if there is lingering damage what president yoon has said about that since? >> yeah. there was certainly quite a lot of controversy about that over here. the embarrassment, really of the pentagon leak and what we heard from the presidential office was denial, effectively saying that they believed much of what was reported was fabricated. so, of course, that is quite a strong statement in itself.

we've been hearing from officials that they don't believe that this is going to play into any of the conversations or have any impact on what's happening today, but what it did show us was exactly how difficult a situation the south korean and officials and the government find themselves in. the fact that it was a remarkable -- remarkably detailed view of senior south korean officials debating about how they were going to get around the fact that the united states wanted south korea to send them ammunition and artillery which they can then send on to ukraine. south korea has this policy that they don't provide weapons to any countries at war, but they are coming under increasing pressure not just from the united states, but from other countries, the nato chief came to south korea to speak to president yoon to try and push him to give weapons to ukraine and so it is becoming a point of contention. there is public debate as to whether or not south korea

should now start to do more and start to give more than just the humanitarian aid and financial aid that they've been giving to ukraine because the fact is south korea is becoming a significant arms and weapons exporter and we know that they have a lot of ammunition which ukraine needs at this point. >> all right. our paula hancocks there, thank you to you, jeff zeleny and arlette saenz who is there watching all of this happen at the white house. we just saw both president yoon of south korea and president biden going back to do the work that we all want to know what happens after this. so we will be right back. there's much more on cnn news central ahead. ♪ ♪ okay everyone, our mission is complete balanced nutrition. together we provide nutrients to support immune,

order to win over some skeptics including subsidies for ethanol. that was something the initial bill would have repealed subsidies for ethanol. that is now included in the package in order to win four iowa gop members who had planned to oppose it over this issue as well as some other midwestern republicans. also changing how new, proposed medicaid work requirements for beneficiaries to that program. there had been a push among some on the far right to make those work requirements implemented quicker under this proposal and the republican leaders agreed to that and as a result the expectation is that they will get the votes to actually pass this today, but in talking to some members, some members are still concerned and warning that they'll vote no. >> these last-minute changes didn't win you over? >> no. no. i am still leaning no on the bill. >> no. they haven't changed my mind. you know, i -- we had a meeting and then you all were all waiting for me after the meeting

and they didn't show. >> now what's going to happen if they don't do it? let them schhut the government down. let the senate shut the government down. >> that was ralph norman and he will support it going forward and they'll limit the defections to less than four republican members. remember, four republicans vote no that's okay, but if five vote against it that's enough to sink the bill and we do expect at least three there as you can see have raised concerns and matt gaetz told me he's not certain he will vote for this bill yet and uncertain and the expectation at the moment is if they can get the votes and get this out today as the debt default looms as soon as june, sarah? >> lots hanging in the balance, thank you very much, manu raju on capitol hill. kate? >> washington state taking on assault-style weapons, banning the sale, manufacture or import of this type of gun. where the push and pull over

this morning drastically different gun legislation signed into law in two states. in washington democratic governor jay isly banned the sale of most assault-style weapons with the exception of law enforcement and armed forces

while nebraska became the 27th state to eliminate conceal carry, in other words, you can carry guns without permits. cnn's zach wolf joins us now. let's start with the assault weapon ban in washington because at the federal level, let's be honest, the assault weapon ban doesn't seem to have much hope of passing at the federal level, but some states are doing it piece by piece. >> yeah. states have been working on this. it's mostly blue states doing it on the west coast, in the northeast and illinois. these are all subject to court challenges, so i think there's a real question about how long these assault weapons bans will be in place. none of them has been stayed yet, but i think that there's a serious court battle to keep an eye on. washington state has become the most recent, but we also have places like california, hawaii and then the northeast we have, you know, new york and new jersey and states up there. >> in the flip side of this are laws like the ones that we are now seeing in nebraska

eliminated conceal carry and eliminating the need for permits there. how much of that are you seeing around the country? >> it's a majority of states now. we have the 27th state to essentially end a requirement for any sort of gun permitting with nebraska. these are mostly southern states, primarily red states that are making this move and you've read a lot about this. i think populationwise most of the country still requires permitting, but this move primarily in the south and with red states means that there's a large portion of the country, more than half the states where you don't need it good morning. >> zach wolf, thank you very much for being with us on "cnn news central," sarah? >> an urgent man hunt is under way for four detainees who escaped from a mississippi jail. details on that ahead. plus republicans seem to have the votes on capitol hill to pass the debt ceiling bill today and major changes had to be made
