WASHINGTON — The US State Department on Friday warned foreign governments not to retaliate against human rights activists or others whose dealings with American officials were disclosed in secret diplomatic cables published by WikiLeaks.

State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley told reporters that certain governments have been told that if they take what Crowley called "adverse actions" against sources cited in the cables it would harm relations with the United States. Crowley did not say which governments have been warned, or describe any specific instance of retaliation.

The State Department has as many as 60 people poring over the leaked cables to assess potential damage, Crowley said. So far they have identified several hundred individuals thought to be at risk, he said.
