stepfather all died in the crash. the plane was headed to st. petersburg, florida. the ntsb says they recovered the cockpit voice recorder, but other crucial evidence was destroyed. >> unfortunately, due to the extensive post-impact fire and damage incurred during the impact sequence, other systems are virtually destroyed. >> and marcus joins us now live from the scene of that crash. marcus, we just heard the ntsb say they recovered the cockpit voice recorder, but this plane did not have a flight data recorder? >> reporter: yeah, cecilia. as you know, this type of plane does not require a flight data recorder, and that's going to make it harder for investigators as they look into this deadly crash. now, the cockpit voice recorder, however, it is already in washington being analyzed and investigators are listening to the background noise, hoping it will lead them to a critical clue that can help them figure out what brought this plane down. cecilia? >> a lot of questions there. okay, marcus, thank you. we'll turn next to that

negotiated by the obama administration. the move comes a year after president trump pulled the u.s. out of that deal. today, he was asked if he has a message for iran. >> no, no message to iran. they know what they're doing. they know what they're playing with. and i think they're playing with fire. >> reporter: the president has called for new talks, but iran is showing no sign its leaders want to negotiate with trump. iran, one of two nuclear challenges facing the administration. the other -- north korea. >> my friend. >> reporter: over the weekend, trump becoming the first sitting u.s. president to step foot on north korean soil. the hastily arranged meeting at the heavily fortified demilitarized zone which divides the north and south. kim jong-un telling donald trump he never expected to meet him at this place. and with that, history was made. trump giving an open invitation to the brutal dictator to visit the white house.
