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. Department authorizes USUN to convey to the Chair of the 
Security Council Sanctions Committee established pursuant to 
resolution 918 (1994) concerning Rwanda and the Permanent 
Representative of the Mission of Rwanda that the U.S. 
supports terminating the remaining sanctions monitored by 
that Committee.  The measures contained in operative 
paragraph 9 of resolution 1011 (1995) were imposed with a 
view to prohibiting the sale and supply of arms and related 
material to non-governmental forces for use in Rwanda.  The 
United States understands that the Government of Rwanda is 
sufficiently in control of its territory and supports the 
lifting by the Security Council of the remaining Chapter VII 
measures related to Rwanda set out in paragraph 9 of 
resolution 1011 (1995). 
 
2. Department appreciates Mission's efforts.
