On monday, is set to hold fundraisers before delivering remarks before the General Assembly. He will talk about americas vision for leadership and make the case that countries need to Work Together to solve problems. This comes as the president tries to highlight his alliancebuilding going into the 2024 election. Mr. Biden will meet with brazils president on wednesday. And also on wednesday, he is set to sit down with israeli Prime Minister benjamin netanyahu. Its the first time they are meeting since netanyahu came back into power last year. There was questions if the meeting would occur after the white house had expressed criticism and frustration of netanyahus Government Making Reforms in that country. When the president wraps up in new york city, he will head back here to washington. On thursday, he will host president zelensky who is making rounds on capitol hill. This gives him a chance to speak about the counteroffensive under way against russia. And the meeting comes at a time when biden is pushing congress to pass more aid for ukraine. That is meeting resistance from republicans in the house. Ukrainian president zelensky will be attending the u. N. General assembly for the first time on tuesday. After, that he will head to washington to meet with joe biden at the white house. While mr. Zelensky is pushing for support from allies, ukrainian lawmakers told cnn the guns are firing 6,000 shells a day. The military cwants more than 10,000. Mr. Zelensky is leeager to show his allies that he is making gains on the battlefield. Cnn investigative producer joins me now live from london. President zelensky will make an inperson appearance at the u. N. He is sure to be the center of atte attention. He will be meeting with leaders around the globe, to remind them about how important the counteroffensive is, and how much he needs support from many allies Around The World as this war continues. He will be meeting with leaders on the sidelines as he gives an address. He will be going on to washington. Not just to meet with biden. Also to meet with lawmakers from both sides of the aisle, as the concern about u. S. Public support for the funding of ukraine and the worry that it may be declining. And the need to shore up support, particularly as we move into the winter months. This counteroffensive has been m making marginal gains, it will be more challenging. It will give russia more time to shore up the defensive lines and make it difficult to make ukraine have progress. Demonstrate why it is so key that he continues to need this Military Equipment, this ammunition, this support, from the United States. One of the key things are longrange missiles that weve been discussing. And the reason for that is longrange missiles can get Behind Enemy Lines and target areas that russia is using for this war. For example, we looked last week at a variety of ukrainian attacks in crimea. Its expected they use longrange missiles. Thats because they can reach so far to target areas, such as the port, that had a key repair facility. Key for rebuilding ships that may get damaged during the offensive as it continues. This is what ukraine needs. While it has longrange missiles, it doesnt have the u. S. Ones that they want. The Army Tactical missile systems. They can reach over 180 miles. Biden is said to be considering giving these to ukraine. Hes not made a final decision. This is what zelensky wants out of this trip, more assurance that more missiles will be delivered to ukraine. Thank you so much. Negotiators for the united autoworkers are set to meet with representatives with carmaker stalantis. A source familiar with the talks says, no new Contract Offers has been put forward since before the strike deadline last thursday. Reporter negotiations continue between the union and the big three. On sunday, they negotiated at the main table. On saturday, it was ford. On monday, it will be stellantis. No word on a deal. The last offers in a the big three put on the table were about 20 increases and wages over four years. The union has been demanding 40 in Wage Increases for the next four years. Theres been a rotating cast of elected officials. Sunday, we saw hakeem jeffries, the highest ranking democratic official, take to the pickett line with workers. I had a conversation with him about how he thought negotiations were going. Take a listen. Union has not backed down from demand. But do you think they need to compromise a little bit to get this deal done . As president obama inld kated, uaw workers bailed out these companies. They are around today because of the sacrifices that were made by the uaw. Its time that the uaw benefits from the fruits of their labor and sacrifice. Reporter weve seen some of the big three have to idle workers and lay off workers because of the targeted strikes. I know youre in support of the sp folks on the pickett line. Are you concerned about the impact on the industry or the economy, as folks are grappling with high inflation . Theres pain and sacrifice involved in any righteous struggle. The cause is just. Lifting up the great Middle Class Dream For Uaw Workers is a critical fight. It will raise the bar for workers across the country. Reporter this week, the acting labor secondary and the white house adviser are expected to come to detroit to try to help with negotiations. Shawn feign has made it very clear he wants the administration to stay out of talks. But President Biden is hoping they can move a deal forward and prevent targeted strikes from making place at plants across the country. Natasha lindstaedt is a professor of government. Warm welcome. No quick resolution on the horizon on the strike. What are the political ramifications of this industrial action . And do you think this could potentially become an electoral issue . It could. There could be political ramifications if this goes on for a long time. Average autoworkers strike in the last 30 years have lasted about five weeks. This would be bad if it goes on an own. On the local economies of the swing states and the National Economy as a whole. And biden, he has proclaimed himself as the most prounion president ever, he has a tricky situation. He wants the strike resolved as quickly as possible. But he has to appear to be as prounion as he can. He needs to be on the side of the autoworkers. Theres really important demands that might not get met that soon. They want more pay. Theres a huge divide between what the ceos are making, in some cases 365times what the average autoworker. The autoworkers are saying theres a 40 increase in ceo pay where we cant afford to buy the cars that were actually making. In terms of what the values are, it would be to be on the side of the autoworkers. But he is dealing with the way the nation perceives his ability to run the economy as a whole. And recent polling has revealed that its not so great. That 70 of americans dont think that the economy is going in the right direction. 84 its due to the cost of living. And onethird think that biden is doing a good job of running the economy. In headtohead polls against trump, trump is 10 ahead of him in terms of how americans think he will be better to run the economy, compared to biden. Biden will want this to be resolved quickly, without him appearing to lose sight of what the needs are of the autoworkers. Thats not the only crisis that President Biden is facing. Theres so many challenges this week. Theres the looming Government Shutdown at the end of the month. Are there efforts underway to break the impasse on capitol hill and avert a shutdown . Theres always efforts to avert a shutdown. We saw this during the Trump Administration that we were on the brink of shutdown or feeling that there was a deal that was sorted out. Seems to be this will pass in the same type of way. They will try to avoid it. If they dont, biden will have to go on the offensive and claim this is the republicans that are instigating this shutdown. This isnt the democrats that want this. Theyre trying to find a solution. We see in the economic speech, he was going on the attack with the economic credentials and what are they offering the American People . And he has to focus on that, as well. While trying to ensure that the shutdown doesnt happen. Also on the president s todo list, an Impeachment Inquiry. What will this do to the president s Reelection Campaign . Its a bad week for biden. The Impeachment Inquiry is the good news. I think its going to backfire. It showcases there is infighting within the Republican Party that house leader Kevin Mccarthy is trying to appease this maga wing that wants to get rid of Kevin Mccarthy and pursue extreme policies. As a result, we had the Impeachment Inquiry mess. Impeachment inquiries tend to backfire because a little bit of overreach here. Every time they try to investigate and find information, they dont have any facts or proof there was wrongdoing that took place. This will probably backfire. Natasha lyindstaedt, thank yu very much. Former President Trump has given his first broadcast interview. It was packed with dubious departures from reality. He sat down with Kristen Welker on nbcs meet the press. The wideranging interview covered his false claims of election fraud, abortion, afghanistan, russian pipeline, inflation and january 6th. The capitol insurrection that he improperly claimed on thenhouse speaker nancy pelosi. By the way, nancy pelosi why would i tell you that . You dont want to talk about that . Nancy pelosi was in charge of security. She turned down 10,000 soldiers. Did you call military or Law Enforcement . What . Did you call military or Law Enforcement . Im not going to tell you anything. Let me put it this way, i behaved so well, i did such a good job. His claims against pelosi are not true. Mr. Trump said he was and would be again, the most antiabortion president in history and made this startling comment about abortion. You have New York State and other places that pass legislation, where youre allowed to kill the baby after birth. That also is not true. From january 6th to abortion, to afghanistan, to the 2020 election, to inflation, trump got it wrong. Heres cnns Danielle Dale with details on all of the false claims that trump put forward. It was an interview filled with false claims. Im comfortable calling lies. And abortion was one of the topics he was most dishonest. He claims that New York State and others have passed laws allowing people to kill babies after birth. Thats out and out wrong. No state has done that. That is infanticide, illegal in all 50 states. New york passed a 24week Abortion Limit with exceptions after that for the health and wife of the pregnant woman and the viability of the fetus. He repeated his false claim that nancy pelosi was in charge of capitol capitol security on january 6th, 2021. Theres no evidence he made an offer to National Guards troops. It is donald trump, the president of the United States, who had the authority to order the National Guard to the capitol on that day. He repeated his lie that he won the 2020 election, he was cheated and it was rigged. We know this was false. He made a claim there was no Terrorist Watch List encountered at the southern border. The number in 2019 was higher to this point in the fiscal year than this year under President Biden. He repeated the false claim that he killed the nord stream two, before he imposed sanctions on it. During his presidency, russia announced it was going to resume construction. He exaggerated even on fact wheres the actual facts would be helpful to him. For example, he claimed talking about inflation, that the price of bacon has gone up fivetimes under joe biden. It has gone up. But gone up about 11 . Not fivetimes. Not even close. He said the u. S. Left behind about 85 billion worth of Military Equipment upon the withdraw from afghanistan. The actual number is significant, but nowhere close to what trump said. About 7 billion. Rescue crews in libya are working to recover the dead after floods ravaged a portside city. Difficult terrain and materials are making the process difficult. And new commitments to take on the migrant crisis in places like italy. Details by the European Union chief and italian Prime Minister to help ease the situation. Trtranquil and serene.

Its unknown how many people have died. The United Nations has revised a death toll of 11,000.

Reporter teams have been working out at sea, trying to recover the bodies of the thousands of victims of last weeks catastrophic event that hit the city. We have seen libyan teams here to try to reach the bodies of those victims. W were hearing from International Teams that this is a nearimpossible mission. They say that one team told us they were able to recover more than 60 bodies since they got here. But right now, they are not able to do that anymore. One team says they spotted the bodies of about 300 people. But the conditions are so challenging, they say they dont have the right equipment to reach these really hardtoreach areas. Coves where the bodies have ended up. Shallow waters where the boats cant go. They dont have the equipment, the manpower to deal with a situation like this. They are telling us they spotted the bodies over the past couple days, right now, the bodies have disintegrated into remains they just cannot reach, they cannot retrieve because of the health hazard. This is devastating for the so many families survivors here, who we were speaki
