Охренеть. Полный архив из 352,000 посольских телеграмм выложен в сеть. С грифами от "Classified" до "Secret". Открыл первый попавшийся с тегом по ирану. Интересное чувство - как будто читаешь шпионский роман, но эти документы самые настоящие...
Этот - по Турецких сделках с Ираном по покупке/продаже оружия. Союзничек НАТО называется...

BACKGROUND 
---------- 
 
2. (S) The U.S. has information about several transactions 
involving Turkish firms planning to export and import from 
Iran arms and related material controlled by the Wassenaar 
Arrangement.  Specifically, Iran is interested in procuring 
Full Metal Jacket (FMJ) .38 caliber and wadcutter bullets; 40 
mm automatic grenade launchers; 5.56 mm composite magazines 
(for M16 assault rifles), and 7.62 X 39 mm and 7.62 X 51 mm 
composite magazines from Turkey.  In addition, we understand 
that a Turkish firm may also be pursuing a deal to import 
plastic explosives and nitrocellulose from Iran. 
 
3. (S) The U.S. wants to provide this information to Turkish 
officials, request that they investigate this activity and 
use all available means to prevent these firms from exporting 
and importing such arms to and from Iran.  In addition to any 
domestic Turkish authorities that may apply, these activities 
may also be in violation of both United Nations Security 
Resolution (UNSCR) 1747 and U.S. domestic authorities.
