Understanding cables
Every cable message consists of three parts:

  • 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: CZECHS AGREE THAT UPCOMING SYRIAN ELECTION WILL 
NOT BE DEMOCRATIC 
 
REF: STATE 71071 
 
ΒΆ1. (SBU) Czech MFA Syria desk officer Jaromir Marek told 
Poloff on May 25 that the Czech Republic agrees that the 
upcoming presidential election in Syria will not be free and 
fair. He chuckled at the very idea of using the word 
"election" in connection with the event, observing that it is 
really a "referendum" in which the only possible "vote" is 
"yes." Marek said the Czech Republic has no official position 
on the Syrian election, other than the view that Syria is not 
a democratic country. Marek said the Czechs focus their 
attention on human rights abuses in Syria.
