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.

REF: SECSTATE 93173 
 
(SBU) PolChief delivered subject demarche to Hannele 
Voionmaa, Counselor in the Finnish MFA's Unit for Security 
Policy, July 6.  Voionmaa said that the MFA would have to 
consult with the Ministry of Defense before offering a 
definitive response.  She suggested that a determination from 
the Ministry of Defense regarding whether surplus stocks of 
tank and howitzer rounds existed would be unlikely in the 5 
to 10 day timeframe requested, but promised to provide a 
response as soon as possible.
