Almost no information about the nature of U.L. Paper is given over the course of the game, except that, according to Niko's [[United Liberty Paper Contact|contact]], they are not part of the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation#Grand Theft Auto IV|FIB]]. They appear to have considerable resources and influence, and in some way co-operate with public authorities -- it is their subterfuge which leads to the capture of [[Elizabeta Torres]], and the resulting collapse of her distribution operation. They also seem to control or are in cohorts with the FIB, since the FIB participated in the cover-up of the chopper attack in [[Paper Trail]]. | Almost no information about the nature of U.L.

Paper says, "''It's hard to tell who the good guys are. I'm not a good guy, but I work with the good guys,''". The IAA in Liberty City seem to be hard at work to keep illegal activity at arm's length (they commission Niko to commit several murders, and perform one illegal rendition as a favour to Niko late in the game). The Agency offers several missions supposedly related to stopping terrorist activity in Liberty City. Niko is blackmailed into working for the IAA after discovering that his girlfriend, [[Michelle (GTA IV)|Michelle]] (real name [[Karen]]), is in a similar predicament, and was in truth assigned to monitor him. | ||
