They're both correct, but for different reasons.
"Seeking" is part of the phrase "are seeking." That's an example of the verb tense called "present progressive." You use it to talk about things that are happening right now. Sometimes, a few words can appear between "are" (the helper verb) and "seeking" (the 'ing verb'), as in this sentence. That's okay.
To understand "asking," simplify the sentence first by removing some of the jargon.
