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.

Post delivered ref A, B, and C points April 10 to Rimgaile 
Karciauskaite, First Secretary, and Martynas Lukosevecius, 
Attache, in the MFA's Arms Control, Non-proliferation, and 
Disarmament Division.  Karciauskaite said the GOL supports 
strong sanctions on Iran and agreed enforcement of the travel 
ban and dual use items should be strict.  Lukosevecius noted 
that the GOL,s enforcement exceeds what the UNSC resolutions 
require, and cited an example from early January when the GOL 
halted the sale of lasers from a Lithuanian firm to an 
Iranian firm.  Karciauskaite added that the GOL notified the 
Nuclear Supplier,s Group and the IAEA about the halting of 
the sale.  Lukosevecius noted the EU will adopt a common 
position with appropriate regulations for the travel ban "in 
due time."
