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: FINLAND: INFORMED THAT UNODC IS GICNT OBSERVER 
 
REF: STATE 83550 
 
(U) On August 18, PolOff delivered reftel message with German 
Parfenov from the Russian Embassy to Outi Holopainen, 
Director, Finnish MFA Unit for Arms Control, Disarmament and 
Non-proliferation.  Holopainen noted that the UNODC observer 
addition is a plus for synergy and coordination.  She said 
that she felt Government of Finland (GoF) reaped benefits 
from GICNT membership since the EU has taken up work on 
nuclear terrorism and weapons of mass destruction and GoF 
ministries (such as transportation) have embraced related 
detection work and raised domestic awareness.
