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.

ΒΆ1.  In response to Reftel, the Embassy April 12 transmitted 
non-paper and supporting talking points to the Ecuadorian 
Foreign Ministry's Multilateral Affairs subsecretariat.  In a 
follow-up telcon with Poloff April 14, MFA officer Doug 
Martinez noted Ecuador had yet to formulate a position on the 
amendments, owing mainly to the TDY absence of its technical 
affairs expert, Ruben Herrera.  Other Ministry officials 
would give consideration to our text as they studied the 
matter, but Martinez was unable to state when the process 
might complete.  The Embassy will follow up and report any 
substantive response Septel.
