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: ROYG CABINET SCRAPS CONTROVERSIAL NUCLEAR AGREEMENT 
 
REF: SANAA 1095 
 
On October 30 the ROYG announced that, during its weekly 
meeting on October 29, the Cabinet refused to endorse 
controversial reftel agreement between the US company Powered 
Corporation and the Ministry of Energy and Electricity.  The 
decision came one day after reports that the Supreme National 
Authority to Combat Corruption (SNACC) asked Prime Minister 
Ali Mujawar to halt the agreement until the SNACC could 
investigate the matter further.  A Cabinet statement explains 
that the decision was taken after "the publication of 
information that the company is not qualified to carry out 
the reactors project." COMMENT: The lack of endorsement by 
the Cabinet effectively "scraps" the agreement. END COMMENT.
