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.

ΒΆ1. (C) Poloff delivered reftel message on August 7, 2006 to 
Stelios Makriyiannis in the MFA's Division of Asia and 
Africa.  He replied that the Finnish decision was not 
surprising because it was indeed in accordance with the EU 
common position that visas could be issued to Burma cabinet 
members for multilateral meetings.  He provided poloff with 
the text of the common position and said that any time a 
member of the Burmese government was invited to an EU 
multilateral meeting, it was the EU's common intention to use 
that invitation as an opportunity to raise difficult human 
rights questions.
