Viewing cable 09LISBON112, PORTUGAL RECEIVES DEMARCHE ON NATO TRAINING

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.

Discussing cables

(SBU) We discussed reftel points with Portuguese MFA 
interlocutors.  They noted that, having recently made the 
decision to withdraw the Portuguese contribution, they were 
unlikely to reverse course.  They said they would, however, 
consider the issue within relevant offices in Lisbon and 
Brussels.
