     According to Japanese sources, Peking has maintained some sort of naval bases on Woody (Yung-hsing) Island and Lincoln (Tung) Island in the eastern Paracels since at least 1958.

     Peking had maintained a military presence on two of the Paracel Islands since at least 1958.

In September 1973, the Saigon government put the Spratly Islands under the jurisdiction of the Phuoc Tuy Province of South Vietnam. This preempted any claim by any other power to the waters between the Spratlys and the continental baseline—effectively including the Paracels under South Vietnam’s jurisdiction.

     1. The U.S. side has made a full investigation of the incidents that the Chinese side brought to its attention on March 24, 1972.²
     The U.S. side has verified that the ship and aircraft in question on the dates cited went within twelve nautical miles of the Paracel Islands but at no time moved closer to the Islands than three nautical miles. The ship and aircraft were conducting surveillance on an infiltration trawler engaged in carrying contraband in the vicinity of Lincoln (Tung) Island in the Paracels.
     In the interest of U.S.-Chinese relations the U.S. side has issued instructions that henceforth a distance of at least twelve nautical miles should be maintained from the Paracel Islands. This is without prejudice to the U.S. positions either on the territorial sea question or the various claims to the Paracel Islands.
