back in the g-8. that's a big deal. he said the group would be more meaningful if russia were in it. he completely glossed over the fact, because he brought it up and was asked about it, that russia was removed in 2014 because they illegally annexed crimea. that's how the substance started. then it was the tariff battle. and that's where everything started to erupt at the end of the summit. so as we see relationships with traditional allies plummet to new lows, potential olive branches for north korea and russia. here more on "start here" later this morning. check it out apple podcast or your favorite podcasting app. >> keep it here on abc for the full coverage of the summit in singapore. >> we'll be live around 9:00 eastern time when president trump and kim jung-un meet for the first time. to south florida and a community that was urged to be on guard just days before a

now finally able to enjoy the summer sun with the wedding out of the way. but to the newest member of the family, the duchess, did she show too much skin for the queen's taste? the controversy. from abc news, this is "world news now." >> the right em-fas-is? >> you nailed it. meghan showing a little shoulder there. >> yeah, she's wild. you wonder what kind of controversial outfit kim jong un will have. >> he will not show too much shoulder. >> the world is watching as the president and kim jong un, fresh from super cuts is there in singapore, preparing to shake

hands as everyone watches on. it will be the first time these two world leaders have met. first time for any u.s. president and north korean leader. >> officials from the u.s. and north korea are still making final preparations for the talks in what may be the first step toward dismantling kim's nuclear arsenal. let's go to karen travers. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. hopefully super cuts gave kim jong un some hair spray. it is very hot and steamy in singapore. but today is a light day for president trump and kim jong un. we just saw the president a few moments ago having lunch with the prime minister of singapore. they had a working meeting before that. and it was a chance to thank him for hosting this incredible summit. he said he appreciates the hospitality, the friendship. the president said tuesday's summit with kim could be very interesting and that things could work out very nicely.

there are expectations ahead of the meeting. why are we here in singapore is the big question. there are a couple reasons for that. it's a place kim jong un could travel to, someplace he could logistically get to, unlike some cities in europe. singapore has relations with north korea, it made it easier for kim jong un to come here, and this is a very strictly-controlled country. there are tough restrictions on demonstrations. there are restrictions on the media. it's another good place to have a tightly-controlled environment. the security forces here are very familiar with pulling off logistics as something as monumental as something here in singapore. >> they're meeting on an island a little secluded itself. do we have any idea of the president's expectations for the summit at all? >> reporter: he's really trying to temper expectations.

he has a long paper trail of saying this is going to be a big success unless it isn't. the latest thing he's saying is it could be a big success or a modified success. that's the big question. what does the united states consider a success? they are pushing for denuclearization, a firm commitment, but how and when is still very much in the air. >> you're saying their expectations may be different, but the big goal is denuclearization. and even the way the u.s./north korea define that seems to be different as well. so how do you reconcile that? >> reporter: the united states is pushing for what white house officials call complete, irreversible, denuclearization, verifiable. they want to make sure that this is actually happening, and the president's been a little bit

all over the map on whether he wants to see it done all at once, which had been the original position in the u.s., get it all done, give up everything or whether it can be done in stages, give up something, get a reward. that's what some allies, china of course, working with north korea, that's what they're pushing for. kim doesn't want to give up his leverage. there are concerns about the security and future of the regime. president trump has been saying don't worry, we will guarantee your protection and also not be pushing for regime change. >> the president said all at once is ideal, but piece by piece may have to be the way. we'll see how much he can get done. karen travers, live from singapore. >> singapore had two weeks to plan the summit and get the incredible security operation into place. >> it's as tight as it's ever been and will be that way until the summit is over.

jordan phelp has more on that. >> reporter: good morning, from here in singapore, which is under tight security with president trump and kim jong un here in town. staying at hotels just about a half a mile apart from one another. the two leaders are set to meet tomorrow at a resort on an island that is being tightly controlled by the government. there's only one road connecting that island to the mainland here. and all the comings and goings are being monitored with checkpoints on the road and coast guard boats on the water. singapore is already a tightly-controlled and governed country, which is one of the reasons it was an attractive option for this summit. an added 5,000 police officers are on duty for this occasion, and of course all of this added security doesn't come cheap. but the government of singapore is footing the bill, an estimated $20 million. it's extremely rare for kim jong un to ever travel outside the borders of north korea. and you can see here his

they're seen here actually jogging alongside un. certainly, not a sight you see every day, diane and kendis. >> i don't think i've ever seen that before. >> he's had it a couple times. >> a uber pulls away and i'm not ready yet. >> he apparently had a plane that flew in his own personal toilet as well as food and of course that limousine as well. >> personal toilet for security. all right. jordan, thank you. >> stay with abc news for full coverage of the historic summit in singapore. >> we will be live tonight at 9:00 eastern time when president trump and kim jong un meet for the first time. but back here in the u.s., while the president is on the other side of the globe, the first lady is state side. >> she served as honorary chair with jack nicklaus and sheila johnson. >> in a statement, the first

lady thanked the ford theater's society for its dedication, education and the arts. >> all right. so melania keeping busy while president trump is in singapore. >> and apparently, melania is unable to travel for four to six weeks after she had surgery last month. >> we wish the first lady well, glad to see her up and about. coming up, we are learning new details about anthony bourdain's final days. >> and a lot of stars in attendance, will ganss fresh off the red carpet. first, a look at today's temperatures.
