the u.s. debt ceiling clears its first hurdle in the house, but it still has a way to go to cross that finish line. north korea admits it failed to launch a military spy satellite into orbit, but the attempt has increased tensions and rattled nerves in the south. and unnecessarily aggressive. that's how the u.s. is describing a chinese fighter jet's encounter with an american spy plane over the south china sea. >> live from cnn center, this is "cnn newsroom" with paula newton. >> so a deal to avoid defaulting on tens of trillions of dollars of debt is now moving forward, but the u.s. government is by no means out of the woods. in the coming hours, u.s. house members will vote on a bill to raise the debt ceiling as well as other measures tacked on to limit spending. the house speaker will be busy trying to rangle last-minute support from republicans who just don't like this deal. some democrats are also angry about white house concessions.
12:02 am
but house leaders, they seem confident they'll get the votes to send this bill to the senate. listen. >> there were members this morning who were undecided, who had some very valid questions, were getting the information. and by tonight, they came up and spoke and said they're now going to vote for the bill. i think you're going to continue to see that vote grow. that's what happens with any major bill. >> meantime, the white house is trying to assure democrats they got the best possible version of the debt deal given the circumstances. cnn's phil mattingly has the details now from washington. >> reporter: white house officials entered this week keenly aware that the deal they struck, the deal to raise the debt ceiling until 2025 was one that not everyone would like. there would certainly be conservatives that had major issues with it, but there would also be progressive democrats that were youupset about elemen. white house officials knew they needed to explain why they did what they did, and what the potential ramifications of not passing that bill would actually mean. that has been their biggest part
12:03 am
of the approach behind the scenes over the course of the last couple of days and will continue to be their approach going forward. basically, briefing after briefing, phone call after phone call, all taking place behind the scenes, letting democrats know that they need their support, because the alternative is simply unthinkable. this was how office management director yolanda young put things. >> my job is to tell members what's in the bill. you get into trouble when you try to tell members what their opinion is. every member should have whatever opinion. our job is to say this is what's in the bill. this is how some of the worst things republicans wanted were mitigated. >> to some degree, this bill, as they try and move it through both the house and the senate represents a balancing act, one in which neither white house officials nor their republican counterparts got everything they wanted. certainly there are plenty of issues a that they wish could have been different. but when you talk to white house officials they make clear this is the reality in divided government. and part of their pitch beyond
12:04 am
not defaulting is what could have been in that just simply is not because they had these negotiations, and how critical that, given what house republicans started with. whether or not that's enough to actually sell this to get this across the finish line, in large part, that's going to be up to house republicans, where democrats make clear they're not involved in the whipping process, trying to get votes on their side. for now, white house officials are keenly focused on house democrats, senate democrats trying to make the pitch this is the deal the president wanted. this is the deal the president got. while it certainly isn't the deal everybody dreamed of going this moment, there is a reality and one that retends no default, which is probably more important according to officials than anything else. phil mattingly, cnn, the white house. >> with me now from new york is an editor and columnist at the financial times. she is also cnn's global economic analyst. good to see you, and have you weigh in on what has been really a complicated set of negotiations and numbers. and i want to get to the
12:05 am
numbers. we've talked so much about the politics. but is this -- do you see it transformative in any way? is it really changing how and where the u.s. government spends its money? >> well, so:00 look. it changes things directionally a little bit. let's make that clear. we have seen a lot of fiscal spending in this administration. i think a lot of it has been necessary. i'm a big fan of some of the big infrastructure programs, chips, the ira. but debt is an issue, you know. even some democrats are beginning to say that u.s. debt and deficit issues are a concern. and clearly getting to a debt ceiling every few years where we're finger-biting and speaking to each other as we have been over the last few weeks whether or not the u.s. can governor, that's something we don't want to get to again. i think creating a compromise where you can say look, we're going to save $1.5 trillion in the next decade, that's not
12:06 am
nothing. i think that's something that the house leader mccarthy has said to his constituents that look, if you want to turn up your nose to this, fine. but $1.5 trillion is a pretty big number. it says yeah, we are concerned about the debt, even as we're rolling out some big fiscal stimulus programs at the same time. >> and in terms of that, congressional budget office came out and said indeed it is 1.5 trillion over the next ten years. but there are also some unsettling numbers there, especially when it has to do with specific programs and in terms of how that could change, even entitlements could change. and the issue that defense will remain untouched. >> right. well, that's something that i think both sides were pretty keen on, because let's face it, paula, we're in a multipolar world. we're in a very uncertain world with u.s.-china relations, potential conflict over taiwan. i think the defense spending, leaving that untouched was probably not a hard place to get
12:07 am
to in a lot of ways. at least for all but the most conservative members of the republican caucus. i would say that this is a good deal in the sense that it's not going please everybody. you know, we've really come out in the middle. both sides have to give some things up. it's quite interesting that the republicans pushed strongly for work requirements as part of welfare. understandable, a reasonable issue. the republicans have thought fought for it for a long time. but what's fascinating is when you actually tally up some of the estimates, it may end up giving out more entitlement benefits because of the some compromises made. you've got new work requirements for older people. you don't have them for veterans and other groups. so all of these things are estimates. but to me, the fact that there is bipartisanship again in this deal. i mean bipartisanship. when was the last time we used that word in a sentence about
12:08 am
anything that is being done in washington? that's something to be thankful for. >> yeah, you know, it's interesting. not many people have brought that up. many people are just talking about how difficult it is to get this deal through. since both flanks of each party don't like it, it must mean that look, the compromise has been had. >> right. that's absolutely right. you know, i find it kind of weirdly heartening that all right, it's a handful of republicans that are still complaining. it's a handful of democrats. but really, a lot of people are pretty happy that is a good place to be. >> okay, rana, thank you so much. really appreciate you weighing in as we continue to see how this deal ends up. appreciate it. >> great to speak to you. after weeks of hype, preparation and international concern, north korea says its attempt to launch its first military spy satellite has failed. state media reports the missile carrying the satellite malfunctioned during the second stage of launch and crashed into the sea. south korea says you're looking
12:09 am
at it right there, this is a piece of it. it's also trying to explain why it sent out a worrisome urgent alert to millions of residents of seoul. for more now, we want to go to cnn's paula hancocks who is live for us in the south korean capital. you got that alert this morning as well. it must have been sayer terrifying for millions. besides the confusion about the alert, we now know south korea has some of the debris from whatever was launched here. what more are you learning? >> well, what we've heard from north korea itself is that the launch has failed. it is worth mentioning because pyongyang doesn't usually admit failure quite so liz, and it was very fast as well that it acknowledged this was a failure. and it specified what it believes had gone wrong as well. it had lost propulsion because of a problem with the engine in the second stage. so suggesting the first stage was successful. now what we're hearing from the south korean military and giving images as well is what they
12:10 am
believe they have found in the waters about 200 kilometers off the west coast coast. they believe it is part of the debris. they will be investigating and analyzing that very closely to see what it can tell them about just how far along in the process pyongyang is. now, of course, it's only a small part of the rocket. but pyongyang has said that it will try this again. they have said this was a failure, but they are going to do this again as soon as possible. so at this point, what we're seeing is condemnation, as you might expect from the u.s., from japan, from south korea, all saying that north korea is violating u.n. security council resolutions by using ballistic missile technology to launch this satellite into space. it's not the first time north korea has tried to do this, and they haven't necessarily been successful in the past. there has been some political fallout here in seoul, though, as there has been criticism of the air raid siren and alerts earlier this morning.
12:11 am
>> translator: i thought it was an urgent situation, and soon it turned out to be false. so i was very confused. such an important issue must be delivered cautiously, but this time it wasn't. >> translator: at the moment, the korean government seems to have a backwards system on issues as warnings and disasters. so it needs to be improved. but it seems it's not going well. >> seoul's mayor has apologized for the confusion, but it does raise concerns that there is some erosion and trust in an emergency system in a country that is still technically at war with its northern neighbor. paula? >> yeah, that's such a good point in terms of people being rattled. you want to have faith that those alerts are used as intended. paula hancocks for us in seoul, really appreciate that. now to the war in ukraine which may be shifting ever so slightly to the war in russia. authorities in krasnodar south
12:12 am
of ukraine report a strike. and four people have been injured in new shelling there. he says residential buildings and a school have been damaged. all that comes the day after drones hit three residential buildings in moscow, causing minor damage. russian president vladimir putin blames ukraine, but kyiv denies direct involvement. >> translator: kyiv chose the path of intimidation of russian citizens and attacks on residential buildings. it is a clear sign of terrorist activity. >> translator: of course, we enjoy watching and predicting an increase in attacks. but of course we have nothing to do directly with it. what is growing in russia is the karmic payment that russia will pay for everything it does in ukraine. >> let's go live to london and clare sebastian is following all of this for us. you really have to note vladimir putin, the absurdity of him
12:13 am
giving that comment given that night after night so many cities and towns in ukraine have been going through this. the war is reaching more and more inside russia's borders. what can you tell it's about these incidents? >> i think to separate moscow out a little bit, that sort of crossed a new rubicon when residents in leafy suburbs are waking up and seeing drones shot down outside their windows. we have been seeing incidents in regions that border ukraine, the western region unions. and just overnight, as you say, that oil refinery reportedly a possible drone attack at an oil refinery in krasnodar, which is in the south, borders the black sea. and what seems to be a pretty big sort of attack potentially on belgorod which is up towards the north bordering ukraine. you can see it there. the governor saying a massive strike damaged eight apartment buildings, four private house, a school and two other buildings, and four people injured, two of
12:14 am
them hospitalized. they are a region that have really been the epicenter of these cross-border attacks. it was an important staging ground at the beginning of the car for russian troops entering ukraine. continues to be. so has really been seen as a target. but this is something that, you know, creates a delicate situation in some ways for ukraine. they don't claim responsibility forbe these attacks, but they do clearly see these regions as a threat. an adviser to the president on tuesday saying any kind of peace settlement in the future with russia should include a demilitarized zone in these specific regions, paula. >> and clare, i know that there is some confusion, really, or let's say disagreement between the allies about exactly if this is an escalation or. no. >> yeah. certainly in terms of the moscow strike, the drones that were fired at moscow, ukraine has not claimed responsibility for that, although you heard there the
12:15 am
official saying that they watch with interest, and they believe it's russia's karmic payment. so they do allude to potential involvement there, or at least not opposition to that. but ukraine's allies, where you see a lot of western weapons being donated, a lot of that demanding assurances from ukraine that they won't be used to attack russian territory. of course, there is no suggestion that western weapons were used in this incident. we have the white house press secretary coming out and saying look we do not support attacks inside russia, period. it crosses a line future them. however, as you say, not everyone is exactly on the same page. this is the uk foreign secretary. >> ukraine does have the legitimate right to defend itself. it has is a legitimate right to do so within its own borders, of course. but it does also have the right to project force beyond its borders to -- to undermine
12:16 am
russia's ability to -- to project force into ukraine itself. >> so russia, of course, seizing on this. and you can see claims cleverly choosing his words very carefully there. the russian foreign ministry on tuesday saying it reserves the right to use the most severe measures in response to the drone attack on moscow, saying any assurances that came from nato countries about attacks not happening inside russia were hypocritical. paula? >> clare, thank you for all of that. and we remind you that the latest strikes on russia and russian-held territory may be the precursor to ukraine's long-awaited counter-offensive. president volodymyr zelenskyy saying this week that he in fact has decided on the dates. we want to go live now to brisbane and retired australian major general mcryan. he is also former commander of the australian defense college. and nice to have you here, as we try and parse out exactly what's going on. before we talk about strategy, though, can you just lay it on the line for us?
12:17 am
what must ukraine's counter-offensive accomplish, if it is to be a success? >> hello. it's good to be with you again. the ukrainian in the coming offensive have to achieve a few things. firstly, they have to take back as much territory as possible. and they might not be able to take back all of ukraine, but they need to take back a considerable amount. secondly, they immediate to destroy as much of the russian army in ukraine as possible. but thirdly, and most importantly, western countries and the united states have to believe that the ukrainians have been successful to continue the level of support they've been providing so far. >> it's interesting that they have to try hard as well to shore up confidence among the allies, which is something they've pretty much done since the first night they were attacked by russia. can you gym out a few scenarios for us? there has been a lot of discussion about which regions to prioritize, or if you try and hit it from two different fronts, so to speak. >> well, i think we're not going to see something like the single big push that some people are
12:18 am
expecting. i think we'll see a variety of attacks in the east and the south. some of these will be long-range strikes. some of them will be close combat reaching through mind fields and obstacles. and what the ukrainians will be seeking to do here to penetrate deep behind russian lines and compromise the cohesion of these russian defensive lines. >> and in terms of disrupting that cohesion, i do want to point out that russi, the think tank in the uk did put out an analysis saying that in fact, even though russia obviously has suffered losses, obviously way behind where they expected to be in the prosecution of this war, they're learning that they have become dynamic. so when you think about the russian response, what do you think? what should we expect, even though expectations have been low given all the problems in bakhmut? >> yeah, that is an excellent report from russi, and they provided great analysis on this war so far.
12:19 am
the russians have learned throughout this war, and they have adapted. but it's been very uneven. and a lot of the time, it's been slower than ukrainians. so what the ukrainians will be seeking to do in the coming weeks and months is to generate a tempo of operation that prevents the russians from learning, that every time they make a decision they're already behind the eight ball. that's what the ukrainians will be trying to do, probably for the remainder of this year. >> and it's true that military commanders need to commit to their strategies. the minute they lose confidence in them, that's likely when they become incredibly vulnerable. i want to ask you about all the new military hardware that they have gotten for from allies. in terms of the game changer, what do you point to specifically in terms of everything they've gotten in the last few months? >> it's not going to look like the offensives in kharkiv or kherson. this will be a different kind of campaign. the ukrainian army looks different. it has much more western equipment, but it's also
12:20 am
received a lot of training at the lower levels as well as the higher level command. so it will look different. but it will probably fight different as well. and hopefully, that will put the russians off their game and compromise their ability to defend the occupied pieces of ukraine that they currently have. >> and in terms of that, do you think it's the tanks that will make most of the defense? we've already seen air defenses making a huge difference. i mean, what is it? >> well, military operations are conducted as a system. so tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, artillery, precision munition, drones, all these kind of things are melded together. and at the end of the day, it will be the quality leadership at every level of the ukrainian force wielding all these different weapons that hopefully will bring them success on the battlefield. >> and as you reminded us before, the coordination certainly a huge issue in terms of how they behave in the field. mick ryan for us, thank you so much. appreciate it. >> thank you. now relations between the

u.s. and china take another hit after a chinese fighter jet and an american spy plane tangle over the south china sea. the incident, you see it there, captured on video. we'll show you more of that, next. nothing like enjoying a cold one whilile watching the game. who's winning? we are, my fririend. we are.
12:24 am
12:25 am
tensions between the u.s. and china are rising again after a chinese fighter jet intercepted an american spy plane over the south china sea. the u.s. military says china carried out a, quote, unnecessarily aggressive maneuver during the incident. oren liebermann has details from the pentagon. >> reporter: this latest encounter between a chinese fighter jet and a u.s. reconnaissance jet happened on friday over international waters in the south china sea, according to u.s. indo-pacific command. that's when a chinese fighter jet, a j-16 approached very close to a u.s. rc-135 rivet joint, a type of reconnaissance aircraft. and u.s. indo-pacific command put out video of this intercept, this encounter from inside the
12:26 am
cockpit of that u.s. aircraft. you can see the chinese fighter jet off to the right. and then it cuts or slices in front of the u.s. aircraft, and you see shaking inside that u.s. aircraft. according to indo-pacific command, that's when the wake turbulence of that chinese fighter jet disturbed the flight path of the u.s. aircraft in what the u.s. is calling an unnecessarily aggressive maneuver to carry out this intercept. the u.s. goes to great lengths to point out this happened in international airspace over international waters in the south china sea. it's not the first time we've seen this sort of aggressive behavior from chinese aircraft. in fact we saw something very similar back in december. that's when a chinese navy fighter jet, a j-11 came within 20 feet of the nose of another rc-135 rivet joint, according to u.s. indo-pacific command, forcing the larger, heavier aircraft with some 30 people on board to carry out evasive maneuvers before the two aircraft got too close. the u.s. sees this as a pattern
12:27 am
of more aggressive behavior coming from chinese aircraft. it is worth noting the broader context in which this is all happening with a tremendous amount of tension between beijing and washington. in fact, defense secretary lloyd austin is in the independent i do pacific region right now, about to attend the xshangri-la dialogue. the u.s. have been trying to set up a meeting between austin and his chinese counterpart, li shangfu, but the chinese rejected the offer of a meeting, and that gets at the broader tension between china and the u.s., between beijing and washington right now. it is worth noting that president joe biden said earlier in may that he said he would eventually meet with the xi jinping of china, but it's worth asking how, where, when, and under what conditions such a ming might be possible. oren liebermann, cnn at the pentagon. now the u.s. sanctioned more than a dozen chinese and mexican companies on tuesday over their
12:28 am
alleged links to counterfeit pills. the sanctions are directed at seven entities and six people based in china, as well as one entity and three people based in mexico. the u.s. treasury department says the targets are directly or indirectly involved with selling equipment used to imprint counterfeit trademarkings on the illegally made pills. those pills are often laced with the deadly pill fentanyl and frequently destined for u.s. markets. the sanctions are part of the biden administration's efforts to crack down on imports of illegal fentanyl which fuels america's deadly opioid epidemic. the chinese embassy in the united states condemned the sanctions tuesday. okay. coming up for us, florida's governor is trying to position himself as the top republican candidate for president, the one who will bring the u.s. even further to the right than donald trump. we'll take you inside his first campaign stop. that's ahead.

florida governor ron desantis is telling conservative voters it's time we impose our will on washington. he is in iowa on his fist campaign tour as a presidential candidate. and while he didn't call out donald trump by name, desantis says he'll accomplish more republican goals than the former president did in a single term. cnn's jeff zeleny gives us the latest. >> reporter: a week after formally announcing his republican presidential bid, florida governor ron desantis in iowa, making his first campaign appearance tuesday night just outside des moines, the first of a three-state tour of early voting states going on to new hampshire and south carolina. but meeting with republican voters, he made the case that he
12:34 am
is the republican for this moment. he did not make a reference by name at least to former president donald trump, but there were thinly veiled messages in his speech. >> the point of all that is when we say that we will do something, it is not fluff. we follow through and we produce results. and so as president, i pledge to be an energetic executive that will take these important issues head-on and deliver results. >> so even though there were no direct references to former president donald trump, clearly he is the one candidate who hangs over this race, looms large in this field. but at this point, governor desantis is doing something he has rarely done. he is holding press conferences, which he did tuesday night in iowa. he is also meeting voters individually one-on-one, trying to make the case that he is from a new generation, that he says he has the energy for this job. so clearly, some subtle distinctions there. there are more to come. jeff zeleny, cnn, clive, iowa.

brazil's president is hoping to bring south american nations together in a more unified bloc for greater trade opportunities and influence. he is hosting 11 south american leaders in brasilia, but that unity may not be so easy to achieve thanks to the controversial presence of venezuelan president nicolas maduro. >> reporter: tuesday's meeting of 11 south american heads of state in brasilia hosted by president luiz inacio lula da silva served to bolster regional cooperation and trade integration after the years of the covid-19 pandemic and a period of deep polarization across the region. it was the first time in years that the representatives of all the south american companies met to discuss policy. as a host, lula proposed the creation of a common currency to sustain trade and further
