Viewing cable 09TBILISI1792, GEORGIA: RESPONSE TO BLUE LANTERN LEVEL 3 CHECK ON

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

ΒΆ1.  Per reftel, Emboff made inquiries to representatives of 
the Ministry of Internal Affairs (MOIA) to verify the purpose 
of the transaction on license 050178881.  Emboff first 
approached the head of the Border Police, Zaza Gogava, who 
did not have any knowledge of the transaction, despite the 
license noting that the articles were to be used by the 
Border Guards.  Emboff then approached Natia Gvazava, Head of 
MOIA's International Relations Division.  Emboff asked 
Gvazava the purpose of the grenades, if not for the Border 
Police.  Gvazava responded that the procurements were made by 
the MOIA for law enforcement purposes.
