TOKYO (AP) - The United States and Japan have reached a basic agreement on relocating two U.S. military bases on the southern island of Okinawa, where the U.S. presence has frequently provoked protests, a newspaper reported Sunday.
Under the accord, the United States will return port facilities at the Naha Naval Port in Naha and the Makiminato Service Area in Urasoe to Japan, the Yomiuri newspaper said, citing unidentified Japanese government sources.
The bases' functions will be consolidated with those at Camp Courtney, also on Okinawa, the report said.
