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:  UNGA:  ARMENIANS "NOT READY TO COMMIT" ON 
PALESTINIAN RESOLUTION 
 
REF:  STATE 92528 
 
(U) Sensitive But Unclassified.  Please treat 
accordingly. 
 
(SBU) We delivered demarche and talking points on the 
Palestinian draft General Assembly resolution regarding 
the Observer Mission's representation to MFA 
International Organizations Department Head Levon 
Mkrtumyan April 27 per reftel instructions.  Mkrtumyan 
said that Armenia was "not ready to commit" regarding 
the resolution because Armenian FM Oskanian had not yet 
discussed the issue with Armenia's mission in New York. 
Mkrtumyan noted, however, that the GOAM felt it had 
"cooperated and voted well with Washington" during 
recent UNCHR meetings in Geneva on the Cuba and China 
resolutions.  He hinted that, given GOAM cooperation on 
these votes, the GOAM did not feel a great deal of 
pressure to side with the USG on this issue.  He said, 
however, that the GOAM's mission in New York would take 
all opinions into account over the next few days.
