On Wednesday, Trump told South Korean President Moon Jae-In the United States was open to holding talks with North Korea "under the right circumstances", according to the White House.
Tensions sharply escalated previous year as Pyongyang tested its sixth nuclear weapon and three intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of striking the mainland U.S. Without the participation of key parties in the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue, such a meeting would not help resolve issue properly.
On the United States' willingness to engage in dialogue with North Korea, he said that there was some sign of positive interaction between North Korea and the South Korean peninsula which was receiving the great attention of the global community.
The State Department's director of policy planning Brian Hook says Washington will look for practical mechanisms to pressure Pyongyang.
Analyst Mark Valencia, a researcher at China's National Institute for South China Sea Studies, warned a year ago that attempts to authorize high-seas interdictions would essentially legalize an act of war - an opposed boarding of another flag state's vessel - and potentially undermine the principle of freedom of navigation. The official said Canada never got to the "juncture" of inviting China to the actual summit because there was an awareness that Chinese views on the way to move forward are different than those in North America.
Chinese government had also imposed sanctions on Pyongyang's nuclear and missile programme.
On Thursday, Trump suggested in an interview with The Wall Street Journal that he could have a good relationship with Kim, though he left vague the extent of his dealings with the North Korean leader. "I think you people are surprised", he added.
Some countries, even friends of the United States, may be concerned that such methods could increase military tensions or be interpreted as an act of war by the isolated North.
