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.

SUBJECT: UNSC MINURSO MANDATE RENEWAL:  RUSSIA ON BOARD 
 
REF: STATE 56431 
 
(SBU)  We discussed the UNSC MINURSO mandate renewal with 
Petr Illichev, Senior Counselor in the MFA'S International 
Organizations Department, who told us that Russia, as a 
member of the Friends of Western Sahara, supported the 
Friends' text.  He said that Moscow was aware that South 
Africa might push for changes, but Russia was confident that 
the mandate would be renewed without difficulty.
