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.

TAGS: KBCT ETRD ECON EFIN PGOV PREL IS KPAL DJ USTR
SUBJECT: 2005 NTE ON THE ARAB LEAGUE - DJIBOUTI 
 
REF: STATE 262883 
 
1. (U) Post's 2004 report on the subject remains valid. 
Djibouti does not currently enforce any aspect of the 
boycott against the state of Israel. Israel's import code 
has not been removed from the local import codification 
manual and remains 624; however, there is little to no 
direct trade. 
 
2. (U) Djibouti's 2005 presidential elections are unlikely 
to bring any changes to the enforcement of the boycott.  As 
part of its foreign policy, Djibouti continues to be a 
fervent supporter of the Palestinian cause and does not 
hesitate to echo Arab condemnation of U.S. policy towards 
Israel and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
