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: STATE 79676 
 
ΒΆ1.  Ambassador spoke to FM Moratinos the morning of July 23 
and conveyed our deep concerns about Venezuela.  He asked 
Moratinos to remind the GOV of its commitments under the 
Inter-American Charter, with particular emphasis on the civil 
and political rights of Venezuelans.   Moratinos told 
Ambassador that Spain shared our concerns and that the 
talking points addressing those issues were already prepared 
for the GOS principals that would engage with Chavez during 
his July 24-25 visit.
