Blinken made reference to the precedent set by former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger&#8217;s unwillingness to deliver a protest wires to Congress.<\/p>\n<p>In a reading next year, Blinken stated that&#8221; We are working to provide all the information that this council is looking for.&#8221; The division has a long-standing tradition of having opposition cables, which is cherished.<\/p>\n<p>McCaul cited previous Ambassador Tom Boyatt, who sent the wire Kissinger declined to go over, to refute the agency&#8217;s claims about a precedence during that reading.
