11:14 am
head-to-head competition between former president donald trump and former governor of south carolina, nikki haley. a loss for haley would be a big deal considering that she was a popular governor in this state. the former president holds a commanding lead in polling, will get to the implications in a moment, but i want to show you what's going on behind me. i'm gonna keep are here getting set for more voters to come. and this is the registration booth for voters give their id, they grabbed their balanced, then they go over those booths in the background, you see a couple of voters. they're casting their ballots. i want election worker described it as a giant pencil where it fills in their boat on a piece of paper. then as that gentleman is doing right now, they walk over to a tabulating machine. they insert their car, they get an i voted sticker and then they head out the door of the votes are going to be tabulated later in the evening polls here closing at 07:00 p.m. i do very quickly want to get outside because we have a nikki haley supporter here, sam, who has been patiently

11:22 am
this for steve. what's the message from trump today >> well, fred, the former president, might be hours away from finding out the results of the south carolina republican primary. but this is very much a general election speech that is happening right behind me right now. he is squarely focused on four, on president joe biden. he has now been talking for about 20 minutes and he has not even mentioned former south carolina governor nikki haley. so this is very much setting the stage for that showdown that we are likely heading toward. in november. and he is using his time to cast a dark vision of the country. if joe biden is re-elected, promising that he will make changes reverse everything. joe biden has done since taking over and putting back in place the policies that he enacted during her his for you years as president and as you said, fred, this has become almost like a trump rally. this event, this used to be a gathering of conservatives from the sort of across the political spectrum. however,
11:23 am
this is very much a trump centric rally. he is not only the most favorite person here, but he has also been using it to test and audition potential vice presidential candidates. we've seen a number of individuals get up here and address this crowd, trying to convince the former president and his fans that he, they deserve that second spot on the tickets. so very much a trump rally here and they are hearing from him right now. he is casual to go from here to south carolina but he will watch those election results come in. they are hoping for a big win that may actually put an end to this race. >> all right, steve contorno. thank you so much. in maryland, right. much more right here in the cnn newsroom, ukrainian president zelenskyy is urging hope as his nation enters its third year of war against russia. cnn is live in ukraine after the break >> tonight the south carolina republican presidential primary, haley trump head-to-head as trump surge

11:29 am
what they're going to do and this commitment to it. i want to really read a quick statement that came out of this meeting and they said, i quote as ukraine enters the third year of this relentless war, its government and its people can count on the g7 support for as long as it takes. now, next week, congress comes back in session and you can expect that biden is going to keep pushing lawmakers to try to pass this bill forward to give the funding that it needs to ukraine. fred. >> all right. camila dechalus. thank you so much from the white house. all right, let's go back to kyiv now and christiane amanpour. christiane >> now fred as the war does mark its second year, entering its third year, they are clearly also looking at the g7 and some of them were in kyiv today, president zelenskyy, earlier telling his countrymen not to give up when you push us not >> today, unfortunately, each of us has someone to keep a
11:30 am
moment of silence and honor the memory of together, we bow our heads 730 days of pain. but at the same time, 730 days of hope and maybe just put it would levy ukraine and its allies are now facing some challenging questions with support and supplies dwindling and facing some tough losses president zelenskyy has called for a new counter offensive joining me now from london is ukraine's former defense minister, andriy zagorodnyuk. welcome to the program. can i just start by asking you, minister what a how do you see a new counteroffensive? what do you think the president means given the very questionable successes? because of the previous one >> but we certainly must win. this is for sure, and the whole country is working on this victory. and there's absolutely no other way for ukraine to establish peace in the region.
11:31 am
there's a massive movement about helping you drain around europe. and there's a lot of different projects, different initiatives in all kinds of parts of the western coalition, to help your brain to find the way to get the upper hand. so just pick and basically establish an advantage. but there is no alternative scenario because there any alternative scenario would mean that russians are pushing forward and we cannot afford well, as you know, they are incrementally and it's been not very good for ukraine on the battlefield recently, >> using or withdrawing from avdiivka and the secretary general of nato saying it's a very serious state on the battlefield right now, talking about support and europe, et cetera trump urine, london. what kind of technologies, what kind of help are you trying to drum up for your country right now >> i'm in london to brownlee for for for few days because
11:32 am
there's a technology meetings and conferences happening here on defense side, there's the technological landscape of the war is changing extremely dramatically over the last month. so the previous doctrines are becoming irrelevant. the ways to conduct a land war becoming irrelevant and drones are changing essentially. drones and other new technologies, including electronic warfare and so on. changing pretty much everything wait out. the war has been, it's been fought. and we do see a lot of, a lot of common efforts in order to basically to enable ukraine to maintain an already established in some cases, technological leadership in this direction i have to say that despite russia is moving ahead right now, they're moving with enormous losses. the lowest energy you've got more people than in the in afghanistan who are for example, which has been conducted for like ten years. so that is they do move very slowly and extremely painfully,
11:33 am
but at the cost which we, for example, in ukraine would never, we would never do that because we value our people. we care about our our soldiers and officers and so on. so i don't think that russia can sustain that adwan, that advancements in the long run, because essentially they will run out of weapons since and run out of people but for us, it's more important to find an asymmetric, to find the non-linear answer to the, to the russian challenge. and that's what we're doing so that's really interesting because they do have a numerical advantage to you. let's face it, and they are getting huge numbers of drones and missiles from places like iran and north korea. and the defense minister boasted this week that they are pumping out a drones per day. that they could up until now, ukraine had the advantage in drone warfare >> do you think >> it can reestablish that
11:34 am
>> yes. yes, absolutely, it can. and we look very closely what russia is doing in that space. in that technological area. they do have some quite substantial innovations. but at the same time, we're absolutely see the limit of it. we understand that what they're doing is beatable and we can get getting that reestablished advantage quite quickly within a realistic period of time. let's say. but at the same time of course it's a substantial challenge because they're pumping huge money into this, into this product. objection and they avoid the sanctions very some sanctions they would white easily and get most of the chips and circuit boards from the, from the western countries. but in any ca, ukraine is a massive technological startup nation right now developing a lot of different new projects which i'm sure we'll comparison >> really interesting as you await the delivery of supplies, weapons, ammunition from the

ago, two of the key expectations people had as this conflict was widely predicted by western intelligence. the first, essentially that it was likely that western nations wouldn't be that unified in their response. will that proved to be wrong? there was an extraordinary unity in western response, but that has sadly slowly eroded over time. and the second expectation was that the russian military would simply sweep through ukraine, that it will be a quite a fast walk for the third biggest army in the world. but that turned out to be incorrect. they turn out to be staggering and competent their equipment, not necessarily working up to expectations, but slowly over time i'm that expectation has begun to be realized again. and so i think the two years have sort of put us from a place where we were surprised by certain givens not being met. now slowly coming to reality again. and i think the important one to christiane and all of this is the notion of russia's patience and tolerance for pain. they don't deal with multiple electoral cycles here. i don't know how many us
11:42 am
presidents vladimir putin's on now, i think it's about four or 05:00 a.m. essentially, he has the capacity to wait this out to wait for that moment when western unity begins to phrase lightly. now of course, you've seen an extraordinary parade of european and western leaders in kyiv today, pledging more. but the real big one that they're missing. is that $60 billion from the united states. and the mere idea that that's not coming. we first heard about it in december, predictions it could take weeks to be felt on the battlefield that has been an extraordinary blow to morale here is made many people we talked to question quite what the steps ahead of going to be and it's ultimately what the kremlin always been waiting for that moment where the wes an outlier in its unity in the past begins to think about its own concerns or in the case that the us deal with its own sort of extreme prejudice in parts of the republican party. and that sadly is why the months ahead may get more complicated for ukraine, christiane yeah. >> i mean, it was going to ask you about those months ahead, but i wanted to ask you about where you'd be in this week
11:43 am
and you infer sandwich ukraine loudly celebrated liberating more than a year ago. >> what did you see there? >> yeah. i mean, look, it's not terribly bleak. this was a vibrant place two years ago that we saw russian troops walk into after ukrainian defenses collapsed. and in those two years, it's been occupied horrific for much the population liberated quite fast. the russian forces with drew than it had intense flooding that damaged part of it. and now it's in this awful phase where locals talk about the worst shelling, frankly, that they've seen of all of this war and coming here to a quieter place, for example, russia, you actually get to remember the difference, like all night long in ukraine, sorry, in kherson, there was the thought of artillery in and out. we had drone pass overhead heavy machine gun far, it's winnowed out the population there to the elderly who simply can't afford to go or be anywhere else who race between food handouts to try and kick themselves sustained over time. and that sense of a ghost city really nothing like an actual
11:44 am
liberation or return to normal life that makes i think many ukrainians fearful as for the future, russia's across the river, willing to hit targets around that city. most locals think they're probably trying to hit something military, but don't care if they hit something civilian. and that's reduced or ordinary life there to very little, indeed. and i think that is a dark sign for many ukrainians living here. the notion that though have a really push russia back far enough away to get back to the life they had two years ago. and i know many ukrainians speak to here, remembering today quite what it was like before all this nightmare started, but also seeing no real either way out other than continuing the fight, christiane nick. >> thank you so much from zaporizhzhia. and let us not forget that this has been a ten year war, not two years, full-scale invasion, two years ago. but this has been a ten year war. ukraine has lost thousands of people there now desperate for more weapons and ammunition keep fighting this
11:45 am
fight, which is for essentially themselves, obviously, for the safety of europe, for the safety of the us space, democratic and rules-based international order. and again, they say it's great and we're so grateful for so much of the aid when time is of the essence. now and as we heard so many times on the front line, soldiers are having to choose when to fire back, how much of their limited ammunition to spend and to judge when to do it. it's not like they have unlimited ammunition right now and they talk about waves and waves of russian soldiers charging at them, as they said to me like meat grinder material, charging at them across a field. so the casualties on both sides very high. but here the motivation, even amongst the severely injured, the multiple amputees who i've been speaking to remained so incredibly high that it's humbling actually,
11:46 am
to watch fred back to you, it is indeed in globally so much hanging on this conflict and the outcome chris john, thank you so much. we'll check back with you. all right. still to come, right now in this country, voting is underway in south carolina for the republican president trump primary, our political team is there live will have an update as cnn newsroom continues >> to be, a headliner las vegas that's what i want to do. >> it's unlike anywhere else in the world. >> vegas, the story of nct tomorrow at ten on cnn >> jorge is always put the ones he loves first when it comes to caring for his teeth, and he's led his own maintenance, take a backseat. well, maybe it's time to shift gears on that because aspen dental has the latest technology and equipment with a staff that goes out of their way to provide exceptional care. plus free exams and x-rays for new patients without insurance in 20% off treatment

11:51 am
from the moon's south pole. this image was taken as the decius landed on the moon, but no images yet from this surface. all right, there you go, there the images, all right, here with this now retired nasa asked you're not and former international space ship commander leroy chiao. great to see you so let's take a look at the images that we have received >> okay >> so what are we looking at in this first image from the moon? how would you dissect this? >> well, as you said, the lander didn't touch down soft-landed after a heroic effort by the engineers after an issue with the ranging radar, they were able to actually use a laser range finder that was just an experiment, use that operationally to get themselves down on the moon unfortunately, they had a little bit of lateral speed about two feet per second second. and so when the legs actually touched down the feet, but actually the vehicle tipped over. so unfortunately that's the situation, but the good news is
11:52 am
they did soft-land. they did learn a lot from this. and they're continuing to operate the payloads that they brought with us, with them, including being able to to send back images from the ground there, from the lunar ground, i guess the lunar surface. so hopefully we'll get to see some more of those images in the not-too-distant future. >> so i guess that's something that they could kind of anticipate would potentially happen, right? i mean, because it's kinda on its own surface for our rock might get in the way of the surface and all that >> do you think that >> risks the whole mission at all or is that just kind of a little foible that happen? >> right. and so yes, absolutely. you know, this is the question in my mind is and why did they have that two feet per second lateral drift and why weren't the rates dealt out to near zero before touchdown? could have been an issue with the calibration of a sensor. we
11:53 am
just don't know yet, so we'll have to wait for them to come back with that. this is one of the things that japanese lander just a month or so ago, it came down. it was supposed to land super accurately by using a database onboard database, and cameras to look at what is on the surface of the moon compared to its database and find a smooth area that didn't have rocks that mike tip it over. it ended up also on it let's knows. unfortunately, but of course was able to salvage much of the science it was designed to do. so, not a not a done deal for saying not easy to do still but, we're getting closer. >> so as you are waiting to hear if the odysseus landing was a success. what was going through your mind on this? higher venture >> why was really excited about this as rooting for these guys. they've been at this for about ten years and there's headed have a sophisticated spacecraft had a flawless mission in getting into lunar orbit and coming down and like i said, when they were getting close to
11:54 am
landing, that's where they started having some issue with the rain thinking radar. they were able to come up with a creative solution. engineers designed to software patch very quickly were able to get it on board, the spacecraft and use that experimental laser range finder. do complete the landing and maybe, maybe that was part of the issue of why they did have this lateral drift but at any rate, so they're going to learn a lot from this and the next one they nail it completely. >> wow, they're exciting. leroy chiao glad you could be with us and help us understand the pictures and the whole mission and what's at stake >> yeah, my pleasure. great. thanks for having me. >> thank you. >> all right. las vegas has been a powerful force in the zeitgeist to recently hosting super bowl 58 and wowing audiences with its futuristic new venue, the sphere. well now the new cnn original series vegas, the story of sin city, examines the city's transformation from desert town to entertainment. mecca. >> here's a preview without
