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.

1. On 9 March Ambassador met with Foreign Minister Murigande 
in response to a request by the Minister to discuss the 
return of the US Peace Corps to Rwanda. Minister Murigande 
explained that he had met with a Peace Corps delegation led 
by Mr. Henry McCoy in 2004 and he asked if there was any 
progress made in getting the Peace Corps to return to Rwanda. 
 
2. Ambassador Arietti recounted his actions in Washington in 
2005 to encourage a Peace Corps return to Rwanda, including 
meetings and briefings at Peace Corps Headquarters. He said 
that it was likely that the first efforts by the Peace Corps 
in Rwanda would be in the education or health sectors but 
noted that funding limitations would be the biggest 
constraint to a near term deployment. Ambassador Arietti 
assured FM Murigande that he would continue to work with 
Peace Corps Headquarters and the Department on a Peace Corps 
return to Rwanda.
