 However, the Treaty of Paris of 1763 stipulated that "The King of Great Britain cedes the Isles of St. Pierre & Miquelon, in all Propriety, to His Majesty Most Christian [the King of France]" (Article 6); in fact, French sovereignty extended to the entire archipelago of St. Pierre & Miquelon, including several tiny islets now belonging to France.However, since Green island is not explicitly mentioned, its status remains uncertain as to whether it is attached (French sovereignty) or not (now Canadian sovereignty) to Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon.A 1972 agreement, dealing solely with the delimitation of fishing zones between France and Canada, takes the island as a reference point for the limit of territorial waters but does not clarify its sovereignty and does not exclude subsequent claims (article 9 of the 1972 agreement).
