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: TRANSPORT MINISTER WILL NOT ATTEND WHTI MEETING 
 
REF: A) LIMA 3146   B) SECSTATE 132219 
 
1.  (U) Per reftel B, we have ascertained that Minister of 
Transportation and Communications Jose Ortiz will not/not 
attend the Western Hemisphere Transportation Initiative 
(WHTI) in Brazil, August 25-26.  Vice Minister of 
Transportation Nestor Palacios will act as the GOP's lead 
delegate. 
 
2.  (SBU) Vice Minister Nestor Palacios is interested 
in a bilateral meeting with the U.S. delegation. 
Potential topics include support for the development of 
transportation infrastructure and transport logistics. 
The USG currently does not have any DOT funded projects 
in Peru, and we expect that the GOP would solicit 
financial support for upcoming projects.  In the case 
that a bilateral meeting does occur, please note that 
Vice Minister Palacios does not speak English.
