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.

 Poloff discussed reftel points January 9 with Gerd Biwald, 
MFA Deputy Director for International Organizations.  Biwald 
said EU member states had discussed Iran's candidacy for the 
UNDP Presidency.  He said that while Austria understood USG 
concerns about Iran's candidacy, Austria in principle 
supports a candidate endorsed by its sponsoring region. 
Since the GOA would expect other countries to respect this 
principle regarding an Austrian candidacy, Austria is likely 
to vote in Iran's favor, he said.
