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.

Title- Honduras under pressure 
 
Editorial in center-right O Estado de S. Paulo (7-22) states: "The 
Honduran interim governmental refusal to accept the proposal of the 
mediator, Oscar Arias, [in order to] end the crisis....creates an 
ominous situation for the small Central American country and 
threatens the stability of a region marked by a long history of 
political violence.....If the hardening [of the U.S. position] goes 
from words to actions, one cannot image how the authors of the coup 
will manage the transition to the next election.....The Honduran 
dependence on the U.S. is simply enormous...."
