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.

1. Poloff met today with Deputy Secretary of State for 
Foreign Affairs, Alejandra Liriano, regarding REF A request 
for assistance.  Liriano took the request under advisement 
and committed to informing the Embassy when/if the Dominican 
government takes a position. 
 
2. COMMENT: Liriano's inability to comment, even 
unofficially, in is line with the Dominican government's 
failure to respond to REF B's similar call for assistance. 
Embassy assesses that political complications, as suggested 
by REF C, may indefinitely delay response, but will relay 
immediately any substantive response.  END COMMENT.
