Kim jongun and Vladimir Putin meeting at this hour in eastern russia. The north Korean Leader finding slows just before talks got underway. The u. S. House speaker announces a formal Impeachment Inquiry into house are public and say, they are not convinced the evidence exists, plus after nearly two weeks on the, run the man hunt to catch a convicted killer and pennsylvania takes a dangerous turn. We begin with breaking news. They are meeting face to face, for the First Time Since 2019. The two leaders under delegation of the examining equipment out side. This is a highly choreographed affair, with cameras following many of the lot of it has been televised live according to russian state Media Consumption has been asking detailed questions have about how the cosmodrome works, and which rockets are launched in the facility. Its also citing a guest book while his sister kim looked over his shoulder for the first time north korea fired off two missiles while commission west out of the country. Cnn s is in london, and our Kristie Lu Stout which honest from hong kong. First, do you, as weve been watching all of this extraordinary, pictures even putin himself has not submitted himself to this live coverage. And this long period, he just had the economic forum, and now this high level meeting with kim sugar. What is at stake, here especially given the fact that u. S. Intelligence officials have been saying this is really about an arms deal . Well, paula, clearly there is one thing that putin needs. That is ammunition. It is clear that this war in ukraine has been going on for quite some time. Longer perhaps than he intended it to be. Youve seen recently, ukraine has just received One Billion Dollars of assistance from the United States, that is surely alarming. Looking around at who may be able to assist him when these depleted ammunition on the frontline, north korea is a suitable option. They have ammunition, they have quite storm Production Capacity in north korea, and the ammunition, some of it will fit directly into russian weaponry. So if it is put into russian weaponry, it will work immediately. Not the issue is going to be transportation. Taking this up in a, taking this ammunition from the where they currently are. Nearby, it is 5700 miles from moscow, let alone the ukraine frontline. Getting this other weight down to the frontline is going to be extremely challenging. And, probably an old Railway Transportation that is really not that suitable, not that stable. Nonetheless this is key in terms of messaging. If you look at what putin is projecting, here it is confidence, it is showing he is not isolated, albeit aligned with what are the most isolated countries in the world. It is also showing just yesterday announced today every unification, and includes several of these New Territories of donetsk, kherson, zaporizhzhia, various highly controversial in ukraine pushes back and says they are their own territory. Russia saying, with putin, that this is their territory, this is the more they are still, winning the war that they still have confidence, in and this ally renewing of such ammunition with north korea is a way of achieving that. Well, now to you, you have been watching this since set foot in russia, i wonder what you are thinking no. You see this live footage, and the fact that putin is talking about this space technology, things like satellites, and that kim john moon is saying intently, this is a country that a times could not feed its own population. Yes lets talk in the slide for detroit now polar. Kim and putin are meeting right now, at the, cosmodrome part of me sees footage that was taken earlier this day. They shook hands, they greeted one another. They toured the facility. And talks are indeed underway. Kim, he signed that guest, vicky was seen on camera like this, quote, russia which gave birth to the first conquers of space will be in mortal, unquote, and his sister who is also a she was seen on camera as he signed that guest book. Now according to russian state media, putin office asked the question, this quote, responded that is why we are here, and ahead of the meaning, putin said he showed great interest and, space and said that if the leaders will discuss all issues, quote without haste. This meeting comes just hours after two shortrange Ballistic Missiles into the waters of the east coast and cream peninsula. That is according to the joint chief of staff. Analysts point, out of this is indeed the first time theyve seen a missile test without the leader in the country. There we have to be in mind, this is a leader who rarely travels abroad. Now this meeting that is currently underway between comes as the u. S. Has been issuing its, warning saying these two nations are actively advancing their talks over another potential arms deal. We know that kim arrived in russia very early on tuesday, sending foot some 6 am local time, tuesday in kherson, that is the main gateway to and kim decked out in his suit, smiling as he stepped off the train on to that red carpet. He was welcomed by the russian delegation. He left being days ago, to go to russia by private train, that famous green train. Also on board with, him and also underway, north koreas leading officials including top Military Leaders chief diplomat as president has. Well now this is kim jonguns first overseas trip, so when he traveled by train to four has a first meeting with Vladimir Putin, the u. S. Says it remains concerned that north korea will supply arms to russia. What is north korea want . In exchange, north korea is seeking advance technology, quote a nuclear powered, submarines satellites, also seeking food aid to desperately needs. Now the russian north korea relationship has been deepening animated, biles and is taking a significant step. This meeting currently underway back to you. Kristie lu, start for those who continue to watch this live, coverage we will bring you more. In the coming minutes. Right now, go to he is the korean chair of cuoco near said with us now. Great to have you on board. As we continue to see a very extensive live event here from the this shows that putin is competent, that he can continue to test the sequences and also because of his team, this is the first time also shows how just confident after the program to continue without him having to be on top of every single development. What do you make of the choreography of the events we are seeing now . This has at times when broadcast live. And, they have continually having these cameras show them interacting, and actually giving sub substantially outdoors as to what they hope to accomplish . I think this shows that the cannot continue, relations and will suffer consequences, but also i think they want to show that they are leaders. Putin managed by the u. S. , europe, and other countries. They can lead their countries and to meet with each other and other leaders as well and continue to go normally. And both in russia and north korea. One of the risks of these two continuing a very durable and fruitful relationship, and what do you think, and how do you believe china would interpret that . Can you hear me . I can hear you. For europe and nato, i think there is a direct threat. That north korea can provide weapons to, russian russia can continuous invasion to ukraine so the war will go on for longer. And, if you look in the other direction, i think there is a threat that north korea will be able to develop this nuclear program, this missile program, this Nuclear Submarine program further. This is a direct threat to south korea, the u. S. , and so the circle cold war and we see emerging, it could go on for a long critical time, with russia being an active participant by supporting north korea. Okay, we will leave it there for now. We thank you for your expertise as we continue to watch these live events. Thank you so much. We will continue to bring you more of that summit from russia s far east as we get more information. Going now to news here in the United States, u. S. House speaker Kevin Mccarthy has ordered a formal Impeachment Inquiry into president joe biden. This, despite any direct evidence that actually links bite into corruption, or any illegal acts. Or, any evidence to prove allegations that biden profited from his sons Business Deals. The white house responding with a social media post saying, mccarthy quote, vowed to hold a vote to open impeachment, now he flip flopped because he dudes not have support. Also calling for, move extreme politics. At its worst. We get more now from cnns melanie is unknown. Kevin mccarthy facing threats to his speech or ship given the greenlight to an Impeachment Inquiry into president joe biden. Today, im directing our House Committee to open a formal Impeachment Inquiry into president joe biden. A dramatic escalation of the house gop investigation into the president. House republicans have uncovered serious and credible allegations into president bidens conduct. Taken together, these allegations paint a picture for the culture of corruption. Mccarthy today repeated several allegations made by some of his gop colleagues, including that as Vice President , biden joined meetings with Hunter Bidens business partners. The Treasury Department has suspicious financial activity by the biden family. And the president has lied about his knowledge of his familys Business Deals. But House Republicans have so far not provided evidence that biden directly profited off his sons Business Deals, or made any decision as a Vice President because of them. There is zero evidence of any from the part of president ial biden. The effort has faced resistance from some in the gop over the lack of evidence. What i wanted to do was look at the evidence. I said i will go where the evidence takes me. We looked into agree with Speaker Mccarthy. Mccarthy has been facing pressure from the, right and former President Donald Trump to move ahead. Moments ago, Speaker Mccarthy endorsed an Impeachment Inquiry. This is a baby step following weeks of pressure from house conservatives to do more. We must move faster. A trio of House Committees leaving the way. The speaker has not put it hamlin on the process. The mccarthy alight Marjorie Taylor greene said there is no rush. I am interested in growing as long as it takes. Marking a mccarthy reversal, no formal vote on launch. Aimed at preventing thing has most vulnerable members. That puts a lot of seats about risk, particularly for republicans in biden districts. House republicans will have the public is on their side. According to a cnn, porsche 61 of americans believe biden was involved in his sons Business Deals as Vice President. 42 think he acted illegally. Some gop senators are uncertain about mccarthys approach. The way to make inquiry legitimate, is to have a vote as to whether or not you should have won at all, rather than just leadership beside. And democrats, not sweating in the threat of impeachment. It is devastating. Do not do it. Please do not do it. House republicans have already taken their First Official step in this Impeachment Inquiry. On tuesday afternoon, a trio of House Committees sent a letter to attorney general Merrick Garland requesting all information and documents about whether Hunter Bidens attorneys encouraged irs whistleblowers to be retaliated against by the department of justice. These irs whistleblowers have claimed their doj mishandled and politicize the Criminal Probe Into hunter biden. But, the doj has denied all wrongdoing. Melissa, known cnn, capitol hill.

So far, Authorities Say more than 5000 people are presumed dead and another 10,000 some. Missing now in the coastal city of a Government Officials says many buildings have collapsed, and a quarter of the city. That is disappeared. Thats some of the video from this region, some of the video we are getting that is extremely graphic. Hospitals are out of, Service Morgues are so full, bodies are lined up on the sidewalks, as you can see their families now facing the grim task of identifying their loved ones. Mass burials in fact are underway as, well volunteers say if there are so many victims. Not enough people to help with the Search And Rescue efforts. We go live to cnns Len Each Aukus who has been following extraordinary, developments there and become clear that authorities have no idea about the scope of this tragedy. How do they expect to cope, especially when so many their face terror of this storm hitting them full on, and now trying to pick up the pieces . Yes, i mean, it is extraordinary what we are seeing. Somebodys images we have been, showing absolutely heartbreaking. The death toll now above 5300, over 10,000 people that are missing. Again, as you say, the full extent of the human cost, we just do not know, it is difficult to verify these numbers. What we do, no is even the National Army that governs the eastern part of the, country has said they were not prepared for the scale of devastation. It is absolutely catastrophic. Bodies lying around, the more full, hospitals that are not and service, power outages, difficult to communicate.

Really important assistance that will be needed at a point in, time a Facebook Page of a donor, said the situation is completely out of control. They are calling for more international assistance. To give you an understanding of how much rainfall we saw on just one, day 414 millimeters of rain. That is more than falls down into the area in so it gives you a sense of the catastrophe, and of course the lack of Warning Systems because possibly the political scenarios playing, out maybe libya has been in turmoil furlong time. A lack of Infrastructure Maintenance causing the situation to spiral basically out of control. For now, though people are desperately trying to find their loved ones. People are searching through the rubble. People have this task of trying to get into the city itself, to work through the rubble and what is left. We also know that shelter is required at the stage.
