Niko's contact at U.L. Paper is a middle-aged man with spectacles, who proclaims to have had a military career prior to his employment in the UL Paper organization. It's revealed in the first mission cutscene that Niko does for the contact is the contact can actually speak Niko's homeland language.(which is Russian)
Niko uses the organization to find Florian (Bernie Crane), but discovers he should actually be hunting for Darko Brevic, who ultimately gets delivered to him.
Identity

Part of this article are based on realistic Speculation and might not turn out to be correct. |
Although the actual organization remains elusive throughout the story, all of the missions given by U.L. Paper involve halting terrorist activity within the city. The organization is probably not the CIA or NSA, as they are more concerned with gathering intelligence. The Department of Homeland Security is the most logical identity of the mysterious UL Paper organization, as it deals with stopping domestic terrorism and threats to US soil.
