Does anyone know what this quote by President Kennedy mean?

"Why would Krushchev put up a wall if he really intended to seize West Berlin? There wouldnt be any need of a wall if he occupied the whole city. This is his predicament. Its not a very nice solution, but a wall is a hell of a lot better than a war."
 
Since the Cold War ended, the Earth has been getting warmer. That pesky Gorbachev, just look what he's gone and done. Where is Khruschev now that we need him to solve global warming.
 
I think he is saying that Khrushchev did the right thing by putting up the wall, if he hadn't there would have been a war and a lot of dead people.
