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:  BRAZILIAN TEXT FOR U.S.- BRAZIL IMPLEMENTING ARRANGEMENT 
ON HEALTH 
 
 
1. This is an action request (please see paragraph 4). 
 
2.  Post is aware that Brazil's former Minister of Health, Jose 
Saraiva Felipe, met with several officials from HHS, the Department, 
CDC and NIH in February.  One of the topics presented by the 
Brazilians was the renewal of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) 
between the Brazilian Ministry of Health and HHS which expired in 
December 2003.  Post understands that there was agreement in 
principle to formalize the joint efforts but that HHS would consult 
with other U.S. Government entities prior to making a commitment. 
 
3.  During our last visit to the Brazilian Foreign Ministry, it was 
mentioned informally that Brazilian Ministry of Health officials 
attending the upcoming April 24 - 25, 2006, U.S.-Brazil Science and 
Technology (S&T) meetings, might come with draft text in hand for 
what they refer to as an "implementing arrangement." 
 
4.  ACTION: Post requests guidance on how to respond if asked by the 
Foreign Ministry whether the U.S. delegation has agreed to negotiate 
a new agreement, and if we will be prepared to discuss it during the 
previously mentioned April meetings.
