If you are new to these pages, please read an introduction on the structure of a cable as well as how to discuss them with others. See also the FAQs

Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:
  • The top box shows each cables unique reference number, when and by whom it originally was sent, and what its initial classification was.
  • The middle box contains the header information that is associated with the cable. It includes information about the receiver(s) as well as a general subject.
  • The bottom box presents the body of the cable. The opening can contain a more specific subject, references to other cables (browse by origin to find them) or additional comment. This is followed by the main contents of the cable: a summary, a collection of specific topics and a comment section.
To understand the justification used for the classification of each cable, please use this WikiSource article as reference.

Discussing cables
If you find meaningful or important information in a cable, please link directly to its unique reference number.

REF: A) State 182267 B) State 182099 
 
1. (U) Pol Chief and Poloff delivered reftel demarches to Murat 
Tashibayev, director of the MFA's Department of International 
Organizations and Security Issues, on November 7. 
 
2. (SBU) Tashibayev concurred that Kazakhstan and the U.S. would be 
most likely to find common ground on the resolutions dealing with 
Iran, Burma, and the DPRK.  The annual Cuba resolution is always 
tricky for Kazakhstan, he noted, due to the former USSR's ties with 
Cuba.  Tashibayev said that he would brief Deputy Foreign Minister 
Abdrakhmanov on the U.S. position, but did not make any commitments 
as to how his government would vote.
