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.

Status of INL-funded Equipment 
 ------------------------------ 
 
 
ΒΆ1.  (U) There has been no change in the status of INL-funded 
vehicles provided to the Turkish Grain Board (TMO), dogs 
provided for Turkish Customs, computers for Turkish Customs 
and TMO, and intercept equipment for the Turkish National 
Police (TNP) since report made in reftel B.  Regarding the 
status of TNP communications and miscellaneous equipment, TNP 
officials have informed us that the equipment we provided in 
the mid-1990s is in good condition, but because it is now old 
technology it has been passed on to smaller provinces.  In 
the cities, TNP makes full use of its newer INL-funded 
equipment.  TNP and Customs officials tell us fiberscopes are 
still useful.  Customs officials are also happy with the ion 
scanners, claiming that they have helped them increase drug 
seizures.
