Trump pledges to maintain maximum sanctions and pressure on North Korea “at all cost”

Trump tweeted early in the morning:

“Received message last night from XI JINPING of China that his meeting with KIM JONG UN went very well and that KIM looks forward to his meeting with me. In the meantime, and unfortunately, maximum sanctions and pressure must be maintained at all cost!”

Recall earlier today, China’s official news agency Xinhua reported North Korean Leader Kim Jong-un saying that “the issue of denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula can be resolved, if South Korea and the United States respond to our efforts with goodwill, create an atmosphere of peace and stability while taking progressive and synchronous measures for the realization of peace.”

Now, does Kim feel that “maximum sanctions and pressure must be maintained at all cost” is something that create peacful and stable atmosphere?

Or, does Trump’s “at all cost” mean maintianing maximum pressure even though it will turn North Korea away? Or he actually believes what he said is responding to North Korea with “good will”?

Probably, both of them need to go back to school to learn what to say what one means exactly.
