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. (SBU) Polcouns delivered talking points (reftels) on the 
USG's intention to rejoin UNESCO and our candidacy for the 
Executive Board to the MFA Director General for Multilateral 
Affairs Giovanni Castillo on March 25.  Castillo said that 
Guatemala welcomed the USG decision to rejoin UNESCO, and 
said that the GOG could understand the USG's interest in 
being on the Executive Board in view of the substantial 
financial contribution the USG would be making to UNESCO's 
budget.  He promised to inform us as soon as the GOG has a 
position on the U.S. candidacy. 
 
2. (SBU) Castillo also informed us that the GOG is 
considering proposing a candidate for the UNESCO Executive 
Board, current Minister of Culture Otilia Lux.
