I went over there, you remember that? It was a very historic moment.

But he’s a tough guy, he’s a smart guy, and he just loves collecting nuclear weapons. That’s what he does. He collects nuclear weapons and we got along incredibly well.

The best way to change a populace is by having them integrate with the world, get educated and modernized.
You’d need to convince Kim to accept his punishment for the greater good.
