Problem:WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State Rex Tillerson urged calm and said Americans should have "no concerns" after North Korea and President Donald Trump traded fiery threats, insisting Wednesday he doesn't believe there is "any imminent threat." 
  
 "Americans should sleep well at night," Tillerson said. 
  
 In more tranquil terms, Tillerson sought to explain the thinking behind Trump's warning to Pyongyang that it would be "met with fire and fury like the world has never seen" if it made more threats to the United States. Tillerson said Trump was trying to send a strong and clear message to North Korea's leader so that there wouldn't be "any miscalculation." 
  
 "What the president is doing is sending a strong message to North Korea in language that Kim Jong Un can understand, because he doesn't seem to understand diplomatic language," Tillerson said. "I think the president just wanted to be clear to the North Korean regime on the U.S. unquestionable ability to defend itself, will defend itself and its allies." 
  
 The comments put Tillerson once again in the role of translating the president's aggressive rhetoric into more diplomatic terms, and of working to minimize the chances of public panic. But Trump was not softening his remarks. While on vacation in New Jersey early Wednesday, he retweeted a video of him issuing the threat a day earlier, then wrote on Twitter that his "first order" as president had been to renovate and modernize the U.S. nuclear arsenal 
  
 "It is now far stronger and more powerful than ever before...." Trump wrote. 
  
 The mixed messages from Tillerson and Trump put the onus on the North Koreans to decide how to interpret the latest missives from the U.S. Still, Tillerson insisted the developments didn't suggest the U.S. was moving closer to a military option to dealing with the crisis. 
  
 "Nothing that I have seen and nothing that I know of would indicate that the situation has dramatically changed in the last 24 hours," Tillerson said. 
  
 He said North Korea's escalating threats showed it was feeling the pressure from a successful U.S. strategy. 
  
 Tillerson spoke to reporters aboard his plane as he returned from Malaysia to Washington, stopping along the way in Guam. Hours earlier, North Korea's army had said in a statement it was exploring plans for attacking the tiny U.S. territory, which houses U.S. military bases and is a common refueling stop for U.S. government aircraft traversing the Pacific Ocean. 
  
 Tillerson said he never considered re-routing his trip from Malaysia so as to avoid stopping in Guam. Though he insisted there was no imminent threat, he noted that even if there were, "the North Korean missile capability can point in many directions, so Guam is not the only place that would be under threat." 
  
 Though it's extremely unlikely the North would risk annihilation by pre-emptively attacking American citizens, the escalating rhetoric has heightened concern that a miscalculation could spiral out of control and lead to military conflict — a concern especially acute in Guam, residents of the territory said. 
  
 Tillerson, who spent the past days in Asia working the North Korea conflict, said he didn't believe a new diplomatic strategy was needed. To the contrary, he said the latest threat from the North suggested the current strategy was working. After months of frustration over China's reluctance to pressure Pyongyang economically, the U.S. on Saturday secured a unanimous U.N. Security Council vote to authorize sweeping new sanctions that target one-third of the North's exports. 
  
 "The pressure is starting to show," Tillerson said. "I think that's why the rhetoric coming out of Pyongyang is beginning to become louder and more threatening. Whether we've got them backed into a corner or not is difficult to say, but diplomatically, you never like to have someone in a corner without a way for them to get out." 
  
 To that end, Tillerson said there was still an off-ramp available to Pyongyang: A return to negotiations with the U.S., a step that Tillerson has previously said can happen only if Kim Jong Un's government gives up its nuclear aspirations, starting with an extended pause in missile tests. 
  
 "Talks," Tillerson said when asked if North Korea had a way out. "Talks, with the right expectation of what those talks will be about."

 KCNA, North Korea's official news agency, said on Wednesday that Hyeon Soo Lim had been "released on sick bail… from the humanitarian viewpoint." 
  
 Lim, who is also known as Rim Hyon Su, served as pastor at one of the largest churches in Canada, Light Korean Presbyterian Church in Mississauga, Ont. He was sentenced to hard labour for life in December 2015 for what North Korea says was an attempt to overthrow the regime. 
  
 A spokesperson for his family — his wife and son live in the Toronto area — confirmed the news of his release in a statement to the media. 
  
 The 62-year-old, who was born in South Korea, is reportedly in poor health. He is said to need medication to treat high blood pressure. 
  
 CBC News reported on Tuesday that Daniel Jean, the national security adviser to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, had arrived in North Korea to negotiate his release. The last attempt at such talks was made in late 2016. Canada does not have an embassy in North Korea, and has advised against all travel there. 
  
 The latest negotiations got underway amid heightened tensions between Pyongyang and Washington over the former's missile and nuclear weapons tests. The isolated state said it is considering an attack against the U.S. territory of Guam after U.S. President Donald Trump threatened it with "fire and fury like the world has never seen." 
  
 Church members 'so happy' 
  
 Lim's church has said he visited North Korea more than 100 times since 1997 and helped set up an orphanage and nursing home. Family and friends have previously said he was visiting those projects at the time of his arrest in February, 2015. 
  
 Word of Lim's release drew members of his congregation to their church, west of Toronto, Wednesday morning. 
  
 Charles Baik, an associate pastor with the church's English ministry, told The Canadian Press that members of the church are ecstatic at the prospect of Lim's return. 
  
 "We're so happy he's been released," Baik said from outside the church. 
  
 Baik said Lim's ordeal would not deter the church from future humanitarian projects in the country. 
  
 "Missions will never stop, no matter where they may be," he said. 
  
 Others detained 
  
 Lim was arrested on charges that included trying to use religion to destroy the North Korean system, disseminating negative propaganda about the North and helping U.S. and South Korean authorities to abduct North Korean citizens. 
  
 One month into his sentence, Lim told CNN he spent eight hours a day, six days a week, digging holes for apple trees in the labour camp's orchard. He said he had not seen any other prisoners.

 North Korea released another foreign prisoner, U.S. tourist Otto Warmbier, in June. Warmbier had been sentenced in March 2016 to 15 years' hard labour for subversion but arrived home in a coma and died just days later. Pyongyang blamed the 22-year-old's condition on botulism. 
  
 Heather Nauert, a U.S. State Department spokesperson, was asked about Lim's release at a news briefing in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday as it pertains to the three Americans known to be currently detained in North Korea. 
  
 Nauert said there was no update on their status, and that the U.S. will continue to work for their release, with the assistance of the Swedish Embassy in Pyongyang.

Solution:
After a spate of doom-and-gloom headlines on North Korea, two more positive ones emerged Wednesday morning: Secretary of State Rex Tillerson sought to dial down the rhetoric and Pyongyang released a Canadian pastor. Tillerson, speaking to reporters aboard his plane as he returned to DC from Malaysia, made a point to say he sees no "imminent threat" from North Korea, per the AP. "Americans should sleep well at night," he said, adding, “Nothing that I have seen and nothing that I know of would indicate that the situation has dramatically changed in the last 24 hours." Asked about President Trump's "fire and fury" threat to North Korea, Tillerson said it's important to consider the audience it was aimed at. "What the president is doing is sending a strong message to North Korea in language that Kim Jong Un can understand, because he doesn’t seem to understand diplomatic language," Tillerson said. Trump, he added, wanted to make clear that the US won't hesitate to defend itself or its allies. The North, meanwhile, released a 62-year-old Canadian pastor who has been held since 2015, reports the CBC. North Korean state media said Rim Hyon Su, also known as Hyeon Soo Lim, was freed on "sick bail." The South Korean native, pastor of the large Light Korean Presbyterian Church in Ontario, had been sentenced to hard labor for life in December 2015 after Pyongyang accused of him trying to overthrow the regime.
