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.

April 28-May 9 Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty Preparatory 
Committee (NPT Prepcom) meeting in Geneva with MFA Department for 
Security and Disarmament Affairs (DVBR) Senior Counselor Aleksey 
Karpov and Second Secretary Aleksandr Trofimov.  Karpov and Trofimov 
work on civilian nuclear energy issues within DVBR.  We also shared 
the papers with Vladimir Yermakov, head of the Missile Defense and 
START Treaty Section of DVBR. 
 
2. (SBU) On April 25, Karpov advised us that the GOR was still 
considering the U.S. papers.  Karpov said he would be traveling to 
Geneva for the Prepcom and would bring the U.S. papers with him. 
After GOR review, if the Russian delegation were interested in 
co-sponsoring the U.S. papers, it would discuss the issue further 
with the U.S. delegation in Geneva.
