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.

REF: A. SECSTATE 129187 
     B. VILNIUS 699 
 
1. We contacted MOD's Head of the International Operations 
Section of the International Relations and Operations 
Department Tomas Urbonas on December 21 to inquire about the 
status of the MOU on Life, Security and Mobility Support, per 
ref A instructions.  Urbonas confirmed that the GOL has 
reviewed the draft MOU and had provided comments to Embassy 
Kabul on December 18. 
 
2. Comment.  The GOL is proposing significant changes to the 
original MOU text which could necessitate significant 
bilateral discussion (Embassy is emailing the latest draft to 
S/SRAP and EUR/NB).  Embassy Vilnius would be happy to host a 
DVC to facilitate negotiations between the GOL and Embassy 
Kabul.  Embassy Vilnius point of contact is Political - 
Military Officer Michelle Hoyt.  End comment.
